Along with the enhancing of scientific and technological development and people's security protection consciousness, developing the perimeter security system that a kind of investigative range is large, energy consumption is little, cost is low becomes a necessary and problem in the urgent need to address.Distributed optical fiber vibration sensing system relies on it highly sensitive, anti-electromagnetic interference (EMI), without advantages such as power supplies, at safety-security areas such as military defense, financial protection, energy security, community's securities, had application widely, and also will have vast application prospect in future.
One of necessary condition of produce interfering due to light wave is exactly that to participate in the light vector direction of vibration of interference identical, has identical polarization direction component.The optical fiber that actual perturbed system adopts is general single mode fiber, and due to the birefringent characteristic of single-mode fiber, light wave enters optical fiber rear polarizer state and can change, and causes the polarization state of line polarisation to be degenerated.At sensory field, this can cause visibility of interference fringes to reduce, and even interference fringe disappears, so system is declined greatly to the positioning precision of disturbance.
Although use polarization maintaining optical fibre can keep polarisation of light state constant, because laying distance, the optical fiber of distributed optical fiber vibration sensing system generally all reaches tens kilometers, and use polarization maintaining optical fibre can make system cost too high.Therefore, in actual applications, we must take in another kind of means countermeasure system polarisation of light to degenerate, and the polarization state of compensating light changes, thereby it is inaccurate to eliminate as much as possible the system location that the birefringent characteristic of single-mode fiber causes.

Below to the system shown in Fig. 1, in conjunction with the search routine shown in Fig. 4, the impact on system accuracy of polarization control method based on annealing algorithm is described:
Several parameters in annealing algorithm are set as respectively: initial temperature TI=1, final temperature TE=0.05, temperature damping factor alpha=0.5, for the poor C of the optimum two paths of signals with the poor comparison of optimal polarization two paths of signals optimum=0.01, initial state renewal function is got a radius R=100, interior cycle index n=20, gets radius R '=10 for the second time.Adjust thus polarization state.

By experimental data, can be found out, the R effect of more having a bowel movement is better, and the spent time is fewer, causes sometimes program to be difficult to operation at 100 o'clock, so in this experiment, get R=100 but R is greater than.
4, interior cycle index n
The n inside looping is more, and the solution space that program is searched for is larger, and the time consuming longer simultaneously.This experiment changes n, and the selection of other several parameters is respectively: TI=1, TE=0.01, C optimum=0.02, α=0.5, R=100.The convergence effect that experiment obtains and convergence time are as shown in following table five.
