6) the first wavelength division multiplexer laser pulse sequence is demultiplexing as two parts, and respectively reference laser pulse train and delay changes The exploring laser light pulse train of change;
7) reference laser pulse train is transmitted to the first optical fiber loop light-microwave phase after amplifying through the first fiber amplifier and detected Device, and microwave source output microwave signal also transmit to the first optical fiber loop light-microwave phase detector, the first optical fiber loop Light-microwave phase detector obtains the phase error signal of reference laser pulse train and microwave signal;
8) phase error signal is transmitted to proportional, integral feed back control system is entered again, is produced control signal, is transmitted to microwave source; Microwave source is adjusted control signal so that the microwave signal of microwave source output is synchronous with reference laser pulse train;
9) exploring laser light pulse train is transmitted to the second optical fiber loop light-microwave phase after amplifying through the second fiber amplifier and detected Device;The microwave signal synchronous with reference laser pulse train is also transmitted to the second optical fiber loop light-microwave phase detector;
10) the second optical fiber loop light-microwave phase detector obtains the error letter relevant with strain on the basis of microwave signal Number, read by data acquisition device;
11) data acquisition device is delayed by analyzing the error signal relevant with strain, so as to obtain at strain transducer Strain information.
