Description

The distributed method for quick of a kind of optical fiber Brillouin scattering and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to strain and temperature are carried out the distributed optical fiber sensing system of full distributed measurement, specifically by the frequency displacement of the Brillouin scattering in quick detection fiber, the method and apparatus realizing strain and the quick full distributed measurement of temperature.
Background technology
In distributed optical fiber sensing device, optical fiber self not only can transmit signal, it it is detecting element the most simultaneously, collection real time information perception and wide-band-message are transmitted in one, the physical quantity informations to be measured such as the temperature at any point, strain can be gone up along the line with accurately measure optical fiber, realize the distributed continuous sensing that mechanical or electrical sensor can not be accomplished, have broad application prospects.Wherein, Brillouin optical time domain analysis instrument (Brillouin optical fiber time domain Analysis) being a kind of important sensing technology, it, at one end incident pulse light of testing fiber, approximates the continuous light of Brillouin shift at other end incident frequencies and pulsed light frequency phase-difference.When pulsed light overlaps in a fiber with continuous light, due to excited Brillouin amplification, can be shifted by acoustic wavefield generation energy between pulsed light and continuous light.Difference on the frequency between size and two light waves of energy transfer is relevant, the energy shifted when difference on the frequency is equal to the Brillouin shift of optical fiber is maximum, so detecting the energy size of transfer under each difference on the frequency by the difference on the frequency between two light sources of scanning, just can get the Brillouin shift that optical fiber is along the line, thus realize fibre strain and the full distributed sensing of temperature.Brillouin optical time domain analysis instrument has that dynamic range is big, distance sensing length, certainty of measurement advantages of higher, is applied in a lot of structure detection.
In existing technology, frequency sweep detection mode is taked in the detection to Brillouin shift, injects the detection light of a frequency, the distribution in corresponding frequencies of Brillouin scattering spectrum in a detection fiber in optical fiber i.e. every time.Its detecting system, as it is shown in figure 1, laser instrument sends the continuous light that frequency is v, is divided into two-way through bonder, one tunnel is as pump light, become pulse by light modulator modulates, enter tested optical fiber through image intensifer and light gyroscope, and in tested optical fiber, evoke brillouin gain;Another road light, as detection light, after optical frequency shifter, produces a frequency displacement vB, and its size is within the frequency range of Brillouin scattering.Pump light pulse is propagated in tested optical fiber in opposite directions with continuous probe light, and the position met at them, and the energy of pump light is transferred to detect light by brillouin gain, makes detection light be amplified, and its gain amplified is relevant with the coefficient of brillouin gain.Detection optical signal after amplification is received by a photoelectric detector and is converted to the signal of telecommunication, at the detection light that diverse location and pump light meet, its time arriving photodetector also differs, therefore the intensity of light of detector is arrived by measuring different time, it is possible to obtaining the Brillouin scattering along whole tested optical fiber is the gain at vB in frequency.Change the size of vB, and measure optical fiber gain at each vB according to this, it is possible to the brillouin gain obtaining optical fiber is general.The position of the peak value according to brillouin gain, it is possible to obtain the temperature of tested optical fiber and strain information.
The frequency sweep detection mode of this brillouin gain spectrum, the inherent shortcoming existed is: although frequency displacement corresponding to the peak value of only brillouin gain is only the parameter needing to obtain, but frequency sweep must be passed through, each frequency will detect the brillouin gain spectrum on whole optical fiber, finally calculate Brillouin shift according to the brillouin gain spectrum that all positions on whole optical fiber are complete, thus the most complete measuring needs to spend the longer time, it is difficult to fast-changing signal is responded.
Summary of the invention
Present invention aim at needing just to obtain Brillouin shift through frequency sweep for existing Fibre Optical Sensor based on Brillouin scattering, the measurement time is longer, fast-changing signal cannot be made the defect of respective reaction, offer one is swift in response, and measures distributed method for quick and the device of Brillouin spectrum in optical fiber accurately.
