Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention is described in further detail.
The present invention is a kind of difference double-interference type optical fiber gyroscope based on light path difference, as shown in Figure 1, comprises light source 1, coupling mechanism 2, birefringence modulator 3, fiber optic loop 4, polarization beam apparatus 5, first detector 6 and the second detector 7.
Described coupling mechanism 2 is four port devices, and be respectively A end, B end, C end and D end, light source 1 is held with the A of coupling mechanism 2 and is fused to fusing point O with 45 ° 1, the C end of coupling mechanism 2 is held with the A of birefringence modulator 3 and is fused to fusing point O with 0 ° 2, B end and the C end of birefringence modulator 3 are fused to fusing point O with two input ends of polarization-maintaining fiber coil 4 with 0 ° respectively 3, O 4, fiber optic loop mid point O 5place's employing 90 ° is to axle welding, and the B end of coupling mechanism 2 is fused to fusing point O with the input end of polarization beam apparatus 5 with 0 ° 6, two output terminals of polarization beam apparatus 5 respectively with the first detector 6 and the second detector 7 welding.Concrete optical fiber to axle welding as shown in Figure 3.
In the present invention, light source 1 selects the wide range ASE light source with high-polarization, and birefringence modulator 3 selects Ti to spread integrated optical modulator; Polarization-maintaining coupler selected by coupling mechanism 2, and model is the PMC-X-2*2-1550-50/50-0-4X type polarization-maintaining coupler of Shenzhen Lang Guang company; Fiber optic loop 4 selects polarization-maintaining fiber coil; Polarization beam apparatus 5 is the PBS-1*2-1550-S-N type polarization beam apparatus of Tianjin Jun Feng Science and Technology Ltd.; The PFTM901-001 type photodetector of detector (first detector 6 and the second detector 7) Wuhan Telecommunication Devices Co., Ltd.
Light source 1 polarization light output, at fusion point O 1place is because 45 ° to axle welding, input line polarized light creates that amplitude is equal, orthogonal two wave train X and Y in polarization direction, (wherein fast axle is the quick shaft direction of polarization maintaining optical fibre as shown in Figure 2, represent with Y, slow axis is the slow-axis direction of polarization maintaining optical fibre, represents with X), when wave train X and wave train Y enters fiber optic loop 4 through birefringence modulator 3, all there is the light wave of two polarization directions separately at the two ends of fiber optic loop 4, this four bundles light wave transmits in opposite directions.Because the fiber optic loop 4 in the present invention adopts mid point O 5locate 90 ° of weldings, so when optical transport is through fiber optic loop 4 mid point O 5time can change its transmission axle, concrete light wave transmissions path and the polarization state residing when birefringence modulator 3 of light wave are as shown in Figure 4, at the output terminal of fiber optic loop 4, coaxial light is only had to interfere, form fast axle, slow axis two gyros, the phase accumulation of the four bundle light waves transmitted in opposite directions in fiber optic loop 4 and interference output phase place (the wherein Δ n=n as shown in the table of each gyro x-n y, λ is optical wavelength, rotate the SAGNAC phase shift caused, L 1o 3point is to mid point O 5fiber lengths, L 2o 4point is to mid point O 5fiber lengths, L 1≈ L 2).
The interference of table 1 gyro exports phase place
Owing to adopting fiber optic loop 4 mid point O 5locate 90 ° to axle welding, make intrinsic light path difference 2 π Δ n (L 1-L 2the two interference optical fiber gyro of the difference type that)/λ is more traditional is much little, and the ASE light source that therefore only spectrum width need be adopted wider can make the coaxial light wave propagated in opposite directions interfere, and its coherence function as shown in Figure 5.The light wave coherent length that wide spectrum light source sends is shorter, can suppress the correlation noises such as such as sharp keen scattering, backscattering, polarization cross coupling.
The birefringence modulator 3 used in the present invention is Ti diffusion integrated optical modulator, and it allows the light wave of X, Y two axles to pass through simultaneously, but has the different indexes of modulation to two axles.This birefringence modulator 3 introduces two kinds of modulation systems, and one is square-wave frequency modulation, and it is identical to the phase modulation of two gyros; Another kind is HVDC Modulation, and it is to the phase modulation equal and opposite in direction of two gyros, and direction is contrary.
Four bundle light waves transmit in opposite directions, the coaxial interference occurs at the output port B place of coupling mechanism 2, produces X-axis, Y-axis two optical interference circuit signals, enter the first detector 6 and the second detector 7 after polarization beam apparatus 5 beam splitting respectively, its interference light intensity I exported 1, I 2be shown below respectively:
I 1=I 0cos(Φ 0m1m2s)I 2=I 0cos(Φ 0+Φ′ m1+Φ′ m2s)
Wherein I 0for arriving the direct current light intensity of the first detector 6 and the second detector 7, Φ 0for proper phase is poor, Φ m1with Φ ' m1for the phase modulation that square-wave frequency modulation is introduced, Φ m2with Φ ' m2for the phase modulation that HVDC Modulation is introduced, Φ sfor rotating the SAGNAC phase signal caused.
Conveniently resolve SAGNAC phase shift phi s, utilize the output signal of the X-axis gyro i.e. output signal of the first detector 6 to realize closed loop, utilize the output signal of the Y-axis gyro i.e. output signal of the second detector 7 to realize SAGNAC phase shift demodulation.Use for reference the closed loop principle of traditional single interference type optical fiber gyroscope, by applying suitable modulation waveform in birefringence modulator 3, as shown in Figure 6, the gyro of mode to two mutual vertical axials superposing certain direct current biasing with periodic square wave is modulated, wherein phase modulation Φ m1=± pi/2 realize as in classical spinning top ± pi/2 bias modulation; Phase modulation Φ m2=-Φ 0sfor realizing the closed loop of first via interferometer (interference signal namely on the first detector 6), its from No. second gyro exports (i.e. signal on the second detector 7) being deducted simultaneously, realizing light path difference.Now (what in figure, coordinate axis top represented is that first via interferometer interference light intensity changes by cosine rule to the interference waveform of first via interferometer as shown in Figure 7, bottom is additional phase-modulation waveform, by phase-modulation, the working point of interferometer is locked in ± pi/2, then the first actual detector 6 output waveform for the amplitude that there is spike such as shown in the upper right corner close to 0 waveform.), for No. second interferometer, its working point is at-2 Φ s± pi/2, (what in figure, coordinate axis top represented is that No. second interferometer interference light intensity changes by cosine rule to its interference waveform, and bottom is additional phase-modulation waveform, by phase-modulation, the working point of interferometer is locked in-2 Φ as shown in Figure 8 s± pi/2, then the second actual detector 7 output waveform is the waveform that there is spike such as shown in the upper right corner.), by 2 Φ can be calculated to its demodulation s, thus the multiplication of SAGNAC effect is achieved under fiber optic loop area and the constant condition of fiber lengths.
