Specific embodiment
Below describe in, in order to illustrate rather than in order to limit, it is proposed that such as particular system structure, interface, technology it The detail of class, thoroughly to understand the application.However, it will be clear to one skilled in the art that specific without these The application can also be realized in the other embodiment of details.In other situations, the detailed of device, circuit and method is omitted Illustrate, in case unnecessary details hinders the description of the present application.
Fig. 2 is referred to, the light source that the present invention is used is narrow-line width single frequency optical fiber laser, and parameter is 1550nm, 1kHz's Continuous light, two-way is divided into through beam splitter, wherein 5% light is local oscillator light, 95% light is used as detection light.Detection light is by optical fiber sound Optical modulator is modulated, and acousto-optic modulator parameter is:Shift frequency 150MHz, pulsewidth 30ns.Backward Rayleigh in sensor fibre dissipates Light is penetrated by circulator and local oscillator light by 50:50 coupler carries out beat frequency, and beat signal is by double balanced detectors(DB- PD)Be converted to analog electrical signal.Subsequent data collecting card carries out analog-to-digital conversion to analog electrical signal, and enters industrial computer treatment letter Breath.
In order to improve the distance sensing of sensor-based system as far as possible in distributed sensing system, light wave should be made as far as possible Long-distance communications are, it is necessary to reduce the decay of light, therefore use the optical source wavelength of 1550nm.
Because using backward Rayleigh scattering light coherent interference, therefore require the coherence of injected pulse light enough, so just can be with Improve sensitivity.
Assuming that the scattered optical field of i-th scattering point is expressed as:
Interference light intensity in pulse width is:
Assuming that the light field expression formula of single-frequency laser light source is, centre frequency is, spectrum width is, according to quasi-monochromatic source Independent propagation principle, it can be decomposed in frequency domain, carried out Fourier transformation:
The power distribution of its frequency, and be Gaussian Profile.
Then i-th scattered optical field of scattering point can be decomposed on field again
Interference light intensity can be expressed as:
It is the function on center spectral line and spectrum width, it is Gaussian function, can be obtained after quadrature conversion:
WhenWhen=0,, interfere density output to reach maximum, but in actual conditions> 0,, and output decline amplitude byDetermine,Bigger, the envelope decline of its interference output is rapider. So should causeAs far as possible small, the optical fiber laser cash test result that we use in the present invention is as shown in figure 3, cash is 3.03kHz。
Another requirement to light source is low frequency drift, because system is used thinks dry heterodyne reception, the elegant meeting of frequency meter It is converted into the phase for receiving flashlight, increases the ground noise of system.
Assuming that the frequency drift amount of the two neighboring pulse of laser emitting is, in a cycle, the frequency of pulsed light Rate is, for the scattering light at L meters, light pulse returns to detector from fibre is entered to Rayleigh scattering, its phase delayCan be with table It is shown as
In second period, the frequency of pulsed light is, for the scattering light at L meters, light pulse is fine to Rayleigh from entering Detector is scattered back into, its phase delayCan be expressed as:
In the case where system is without any disturbance, the scattering point at L rice brings the additional phase noise to be
With the rear shifting of sensing location, because the phase noise that frequency jitter brings is bigger, so the frequency stabilization of laser Property to system noise suppress it is most important.
In OTDR sensor-based systems, the distance sensing of system is relevant with the pulse power of injected pulse light, the power of pulse Higher, system sensing distance is more remote.Pulse power is improved, two methods can be taken to improve pulse width and pulse peak is improved Value power.But pulse width is improved by the spatial resolution of the system of influence, so general by improving pulse peak in practice Value power improves pulse power.But too high peak power can excite nonlinear effect so that pulse power declines rapidly, cause Decline back scattering luminous intensity, system signal noise ratio and distance sensing largely effect on system sensing by strong influence for this Energy.In fiber nonlinear effect, stimulated Brillouin scattering threshold value is minimum, and the influence to sensing is the most notable.Therefore it is being based on In the interference type distributed optical fiber sensor-based system of Rayleigh scattering, should try one's best avoid the appearance of stimulated Brillouin scattering first.To arteries and veins It is a width ofPulsed light, inject continuous light when excited Brillouin threshold value be:
WhereinIt is stimulated Brillouin scattering gain coefficient,It is effective core area. Bit pulse length.The excited Brillouin threshold value of pulsed light be 3.8w, the pulse peak power that we use in this experiment for 3.4w。
- OTDR distributing audios sensing system is positioned using optical time domain reflection principle, in order to reduce substrate light Crosstalk to signal, extinction ratio pulsed light higher is necessary in injection sensor fibre, and direct internal modulation can occur chirp effect Should, optical signal distortion is caused, it is necessary to using acousto-optic modulator(AOM) extinction ratio is 50dB, with more excellent temperature stability With more preferable optical spot quality.And invention using heterodyne reception, it is necessary to there is difference on the frequency between flashlight and local oscillator light, so adopting It is that shift frequency is carried out to direct impulse light with another purpose of acousto-optic modulator.Also require that acousto-optic modulator drift frequency is steady in addition It is fixed, with the phase noise that the frequency disturbance for reducing by above-mentioned point of compromise causes.
Backward Rayleigh projection optical signal is converted into photo-signal after double balanced detectors, and photoelectric current is via industrial computer number Analog-to-digital conversion is carried out according to collection is busy, of the invention, the photoelectric current from photodetector output is:
As shown in figure 4, be multiplied by frequency being respectivelySine and cosine signal, by after a LPF, obtainingWithTwo Road signal.
WithThe output result of two paths of signals is respectively:
Have:
WithBackward Rayleigh scattering light light amplitude value and phase value as required by us.If the external world is without disturbance, WithIt will not at any time ask and change, if there is disturbance in the external world,WithAlso will be with shock wave, this change is by poor Dividing to obtain.
The present invention is from the Rayleigh scattering and the angle of OTDR technique in optical fiber, centeringThe principle of-OTDR technique is carried out Introduce, carry out with high sensitivity characteristic.Influence of the extraneous vibration to backward Rayleigh scattering light phase, is subsequently to use- OTDR sensor-based systems carry out sound sensor there is provided theories integration.It is rightLight path design in the build process of-OTDR sensor-based systems Middle Primary Component selection is described, in traditionImprovement is made that in the structure of-OTDR, relevant heterodyne reception is introduced and is entered Row signal is received, and has obtained amplitude information and phase information that the backward Rayleigh solution related to acoustic perturbation penetrates light, realizes sound Sound is reduced.
