Description

Multiple light courcess phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometer and its method
Technical field
The present invention relates to distributed optical fiber vibration sensor technical fields, and it is quick to be in more detail related to a kind of multiple light courcess phase Photosensitive domain reflectometer and its method.
Background technology
Backward Rayleigh scattering light that optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) is generated when being propagated in a fiber using pulsed light obtains Dampening information is optical cable construction, the essential tool of monitoring.But since traditional optical time domain reflectometer is using Low coherence The wideband light source of property, can only detect the variation of intensity information in Rayleigh scattering light, therefore can only realize that fiber lengths, optical fiber decline Subtract, fiber failure positioning etc. functions.H.F.Taylor et al. proposed phase sensitive optical time domain reflection technology (φ-in 1993 OTDR), which replaces the wideband light source in traditional optical time domain reflectometer using the high-coherence light source of super-narrow line width, not only can be with The intensity information variation in Rayleigh scattering light is detected, and optical phase information variation can be detected, since light phase is believed Breath variation is related with exterior part ambient vibration, to realize fiber-optic vibration signal measurement.Since the technology not only has monitoring simultaneously It is accurately positioned the function of various vibration events, and with whole distributed measurement, remote, highly sensitive, the anti-electromagnetism of monitoring distance The advantages that interference performance is strong, lightweight is small causes extensive concern and research, has been applied to long range optical cable guarantor at present The fields such as shield, the tamper-proof excavation of oil-gas pipeline, circumference security protection, prevention of geological disaster.
Phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometer is the interference signal by backward Rayleigh scattering light in direct impulse width regions And amplitude, phase, the various characteristic informations of frequency moved at position are obtained, interference signal makes phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometer have The ability of standby phase measurement, but the problem of also bring interference fading simultaneously, that is to say, that spatially the amplitude of certain positions by Become smaller in the reason of the interference, stablizes relatively or even close to zero, and on the time, interference fading problem has seriously affected these positions The detectivity and rate of false alarm set.

Frequency response range is also the key technical indexes of phase sensitive light time domain reflectometer system, shaking in actual environment Dynamic signal can usually arrive material in kHz even order of megahertz, such as pipeline leakage, civil structure and be broken, it is desirable that vibration Sensor have measure wideband vibration signal ability, however the measurement frequency of conventional phase sensitivity light time domain reflectometer system by It is limited to measurement distance, because the light-triggered time interval of direct impulse cannot be less than the two-way time of light in a fiber, such as 10km Optical fiber, signal probably need 100us, i.e. single measurement to need 100us back and forth, in the limiting case can only to the sample rate of single-point The vibration signal of 5KHz can only be responded, and with the increase of accumulative frequency, the change of distance according to Sampling Theorem to 10KHz Long, response frequency exponentially reduces.
Prior art Patent《Distributed optical fiber vibration sensor》(application number 201210349310.5) discloses one kind Distributed optical fiber vibration sensor introduces MZ interferometers in phase sensitive light time domain reflectometer system, improves the sound of system Answer frequency.But cause system sufficiently complex, it is unfavorable for functionization.
Document《Ultra-broadband phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry with a temporally sequenced multi-frequency source》(Vol.40, 15 2015/Optics Letters of No.22/November) using a kind of technology of time domain sequence multifrequency source, it can sweep N number of fiber phase information is obtained in the repetition period retouched, to substantially increase the responsive bandwidth of system.The program uses electric light Modulator EOM carries out shift frequency to light source, generates the optical signal of different frequency one by one.But control of this mode to EOM shift frequencies It is required that it is very high, and usually will produce two frequency-shift signalings up and down after EOM shift frequencies, it is adversely affected to normally measuring.
Prior art Patent《Phase sensitive type optical time domain reflection sensing system and method》(application number A kind of phase sensitive type optical time domain reflection sensing system and method for double light source packages 201210060043.X) are disclosed, but should Double light sources are merely used to provide different pulse luminous powers in scheme, are used for the measurement of different length optical fiber, can not realize The promotion of detectivity and response frequency.
In conclusion there is an urgent need for a kind of new phase sensitive optical time domain reflectometers and its method to solve above-mentioned ask for this field Topic.
