Description

Distributed optical fiber sensing device and method based on chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of distributed optical fiber sensing, in particular to a distributed optical fiber sensing device and method based on chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement.
Background
The distributed optical fiber sensing technology is to sense the change of information such as external temperature, strain and the like by utilizing physical parameters such as phase, wavelength, light intensity or polarization state and the like of optical signals transmitted in sensing optical fibers, has the advantages of integration of sensing and transmission, light weight, electromagnetic interference resistance, high temperature/corrosion resistance, low loss and the like, and is widely applied to important fields such as aerospace, petrochemical industry, nuclear industry, electric power industry, civil engineering, military frontier defense and the like. The distributed optical fiber sensing technology is further divided into distributed optical fiber sensing technologies based on the rayleigh scattering effect, the raman scattering effect and the brillouin scattering effect according to the scattering effect in the sensing optical fiber. Compared with other distributed optical fiber sensing technologies, the distributed optical fiber sensing technology based on the brillouin scattering effect has unique advantages in sensing distance, spatial resolution and measurement accuracy, can realize simultaneous measurement of temperature or strain information, and has gradually become a great research hotspot in the field of optical fiber sensing.
Distributed optical fiber sensing technologies based on the brillouin scattering effect can be divided into time domain systems and related domain systems. The time domain system comprises: brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (BOTDR) and Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analyzer (BOTDA). The correlation domain system includes: brillouin Optical Correlation Domain Reflectometry (BOCDR) and Brillouin Optical Correlation Domain Analyzer (BOCDA). A correlation domain system using continuous light whose frequency is sinusoidally modulated as a detection signal can achieve a higher spatial resolution than a time domain system using a pulse signal as a detection signal. For example, k.hotate et al, tokyo university, japan, implements a BOCDR system (optics express,2008,16(16),12148) with a sensing distance of 100m and a spatial resolution of 40cm, and a BOCDA system (Photonics Technology Letters,2007,19(23),1928) with a sensing distance of 20m and a spatial resolution of 10 cm. However, the coherent domain system based on sinusoidal modulation of continuous light frequency has a limited sensing distance while ensuring high spatial resolution due to the contradiction between the sensing distance and the spatial resolution. In order to solve the problem, the chaotic laser is used as a new sensing signal in a distributed optical fiber sensing related domain system (ZL201110217936.6, ZL201310045097.3, ZL201510531253.6, ZL201510531180.6, ZL201610306001.8, ZL 201610305960.8). The correlation domain system based on the chaotic laser detection utilizes the Brillouin gain spectrum to extract Brillouin frequency shift quantity, so that the temperature or strain information along the optical fiber is sensed. Because the distribution of the brillouin gain spectrum is of a lorentz type, the brillouin gain spectrum can be obtained only in a very wide sweep frequency range near the brillouin frequency shift, so that a relative domain system based on the measurement of the chaotic brillouin gain spectrum needs very long measurement time for sensing temperature or strain once, and the measurement real-time performance of the sensing system is influenced.
Disclosure of Invention
In the existing distributed optical fiber sensing related domain system, continuous light with frequency subjected to sinusoidal modulation is used as a detection signal, the contradiction that the measurement distance and the spatial resolution cannot be taken into consideration exists, and the chaotic laser is used as the detection signal, so that the difficulty that the measurement real-time performance is poor and the vibration information cannot be sensed exists. The invention provides a distributed optical fiber sensing device and method based on chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement.
The invention is realized by adopting the following technical scheme:
a distributed optical fiber sensing device based on chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement comprises a chaotic laser, a first optical isolator, a 1 x 2 optical fiber coupler, a first optical fiber polarization controller, a variable optical delay line, an optical amplifier, an optical deflector, a second optical isolator, a 2 x 2 optical fiber coupler, a sensing optical fiber, a second optical fiber polarization controller, a 3 x 3 optical fiber coupler, an electro-optical modulator, a microwave signal source, a tunable optical attenuator, a third optical isolator, a balance detector and a real-time oscilloscope.
The chaotic laser, the first optical isolator, the 1 x 2 optical fiber coupler (upper emergent end), the first optical fiber polarization controller, the variable optical delay line, the optical amplifier, the optical polarization scrambler, the second optical isolator and the I port of the 2 x 2 optical fiber coupler are connected by a single-mode optical fiber jumper in sequence.
The other exit end (lower exit end) of the 1 × 2 optical fiber coupler, the electro-optical modulator, the tunable optical attenuator, the third optical isolator and the b port of the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler are connected by a single-mode optical fiber jumper in sequence.
The electro-optical modulator is connected with a microwave signal source.
The d port of the 3 multiplied by 3 optical fiber coupler is connected with the m port of the 2 multiplied by 2 optical fiber coupler through a single mode optical fiber jumper; a sensing optical fiber is connected between the n port of the 2 x 2 optical fiber coupler and one port of the second optical fiber polarization controller; the other port of the second optical fiber polarization controller is connected with the e port of the 3 multiplied by 3 optical fiber coupler through a single mode optical fiber jumper; the port a and the port c of the 3 x 3 optical fiber coupler are respectively connected with the negative port and the positive port of the balance detector; the output end of the balance detector is connected with the real-time oscilloscope.
Based on the device, a specific implementation scheme of the distributed optical fiber sensing method based on the measurement of the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum is as follows:
broadband chaotic laser (with center frequency v) output by chaotic laser0) After passing through the first optical isolator, the optical fiber is divided into two paths through a 1 multiplied by 2 optical fiber coupler: one path output by the upper emergent end is used as a pump (pump) optical signal, and the other path output by the lower emergent end is used as a probe (probe) optical signal. The pump light signal is subjected to polarization control and delay through the first optical fiber polarization controller and the variable optical delay line, and then amplified through the optical amplifier. The amplified pump light sequentially passes through the optical polarization scrambler and the second optical isolator, and enters a Sagnac Interferometer (SI) ring consisting of the 2 × 2 optical fiber coupler, the sensing optical fiber, the second optical fiber polarization controller and the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler through a port I of the 2 × 2 optical fiber coupler. The detection optical signal output from the lower emitting end of the 1 x 2 optical fiber coupler is modulated into a carrier-suppressed double-sideband detection optical signal by a sinusoidal signal output by a microwave signal source after passing through an electro-optical modulator. The frequency (v ═ 10GHz to 11GHz) of the sinusoidal signal is set at a Brillouin frequency shift value (v ═ 10GHz to 11GHz)B10.6 GHz). Carrier suppressed double sideband (v)0V) the detection optical signal enters the Seganic interference ring from the b port of the 3X 3 optical fiber coupler through the tunable optical attenuator and the third optical isolator in sequence. The double-sideband detection optical signal entering the Seganic interference ring is divided into two beams of optical signals, namely probe1 which is transmitted along the Seganic interference ring in a clockwise direction and probe2 which is transmitted along the Seganic interference ring in a counterclockwise direction, by a 3 x 3 optical fiber coupler, a pump optical signal is introduced into the Seganic interference ring by a 2 x 2 optical fiber coupler, and only the probe2 which is transmitted along the Seganic interference ring in the counterclockwise direction and the pump in the sensing optical fiber generate stimulated Brillouin gain action at the meeting position, namely low-frequency sideband (v) in the probe20-v) the signal is amplified by the pump optical signal. Probe1 transmitted clockwise along the Seganic interference ring is used as a reference signal, and after passing through the second optical fiber polarization controller together with the amplified Probe2 low-frequency sideband signal,interference occurs in a 3 x 3 fiber coupler. The interference effect converts the phase information of the amplified probe2 low-frequency sideband signal into intensity information for subsequent detection. By adjusting the second fiber polarization controller, the polarization states of the two beams of light, probe1 and probe2, can be controlled, so that complete interference is realized. And the interfered optical signal is converted into an electric signal through a balance detector, and is acquired and stored through a real-time oscilloscope.
By changing the frequency of the modulation sinusoidal signal, the intensity information of the interfered probe2 low-frequency sideband signal under each frequency is recorded, so that the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum is obtained. Brillouin frequency shift quantity is extracted through a Brillouin phase spectrum, and temperature or strain information along the optical fiber is sensed through adjustment of the variable optical delay line. Meanwhile, the phase change of the probe2 low-frequency sideband signal caused by vibration can be converted into the change of the intensity of the interference effect by using the Sagnac interference ring, so that the vibration information can be sensed. Because the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum has linear distribution, the Brillouin frequency shift quantity can be extracted in a relatively narrow sweep frequency range near the Brillouin frequency shift. Therefore, the sensing method has shorter measuring time and can realize real-time measurement of temperature or strain. In addition, compared with the chaotic Brillouin gain spectrum, the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum based interferometer structure can sense external vibration information.
Compared with the existing distributed optical fiber sensing system, the distributed optical fiber sensing device and method based on the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement have the following advantages:
1. compared with a distributed optical fiber sensing system which takes pulse light or continuous light with frequency subjected to sinusoidal modulation as a detection signal, the distributed optical fiber sensing system adopts chaotic laser as the detection signal, and can overcome the contradiction between sensing distance and spatial resolution in the distributed optical fiber sensing system.
2. Compared with a distributed optical fiber sensing system (ZL201110217936.6, ZL201310045097.3, ZL201510531253.6, ZL201510531180.6, ZL201610306001.8 and ZL201610305960.8) based on chaotic Brillouin gain spectrum measurement, the method extracts Brillouin frequency shift quantity based on the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum, senses the change of temperature or strain of the sensing optical fiber along the line, and enables the sweep frequency range of a microwave source to be smaller due to the linear distribution characteristic of the phase spectrum, so that the measurement time can be shortened by 1-2 orders of magnitude.
3. Compared with the distributed optical fiber sensing system based on the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement, the distributed optical fiber sensing system based on the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum measurement not only can acquire temperature or strain information on the sensing optical fiber along the line, but also can convert phase change caused by vibration into intensity change through interference, thereby realizing the measurement of the vibration.

The chaotic laser 1 is composed of an F-P semiconductor laser without a built-in optical isolator, two random DFB semiconductor lasers, a linear chirped fiber grating, an adjustable optical attenuator, a polarization controller and a fiber coupler. Specifically, two arbitrary DFB semiconductor lasers are adopted to output optical signals with different wavelengths, and the optical signals are injected into an F-P semiconductor laser with an optical fiber feedback loop. The chaotic laser signal output with the center wavelength of 1530-1565 nm, adjustable spectral width and spectral width larger than 100GHz can be realized by utilizing the connection of a double-light injection and light feedback combined disturbance mode and adjusting the feedback intensity, the injection intensity and the injection frequency detuning amount.
Broadband chaotic laser (with center frequency v) output by chaotic laser 10) After passing through the first optical isolator 2, the optical fiber is divided into two paths through a 1 × 2 optical fiber coupler 3: one path output by the upper outgoing end is used as a pump (pump) optical signal, and the other path output by the lower outgoing end is used as a probe (probe) optical signal. The pump light signal is subjected to polarization control and delay through a first optical fiber polarization controller 4 and a variable optical delay line 5, and then amplified through an optical amplifier 6. The amplified pump light sequentially passes through the optical polarization scrambler 7 and the second optical isolator 8, and enters a Sagnac Interferometer (SI) ring composed of a sensing fiber 10, a second fiber polarization controller 11 and a 3 × 3 fiber coupler 12 through a port l of the 2 × 2 fiber coupler 9. The detection light signal output from the lower emitting end of the 1 x 2 optical fiber coupler 3 passes through the electro-optical modulator 13, and is modulated into a carrier-suppressed bilateral signal by the sinusoidal signal output from the microwave signal source 14The strip detects the optical signal. The frequency (v) of the sinusoidal signal is set equal to the Brillouin frequency shift value (v)B10.6 GHz). Carrier suppressed double sideband (v)0V) the probe optical signal enters the seebeck interference ring from the b port of the 3 × 3 fiber coupler 12 through the tunable optical attenuator 15 and the third optical isolator 16 in sequence.

Probe1 transmitted clockwise along the seebeck interference ring is used as a reference signal, and interferes with the amplified probe2 low-frequency sideband signal in the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler 12 after passing through the second optical fiber polarization controller 11.

By adjusting the second fiber polarization controller 11, the polarization states of the two beams of light from probe1 and probe2 can be controlled, so that complete interference can be realized. The interfered optical signal is converted into an electric signal by a balance detector 17, and is collected and stored by a real-time oscilloscope 18. By changing the frequency of the modulation sinusoidal signal, recording the intensity information of the interfered probe2 low-frequency sideband signal under each frequency, thereby acquiring the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum information; when external disturbance, namely temperature change, strain and vibration, acts on the sensing optical fiber arm of the Mach-Zehnder ring, the Brillouin frequency shift amount extracted from the chaotic Brillouin phase spectrum is correspondingly changed, so that corresponding disturbance information of the temperature, the strain or the vibration can be quickly obtained in real time.
