Description

Three-dimensional displacement measuring sensor based on polymer optical fiber
Technical Field
The invention relates to the application field of optical fiber macrobend coupling, in particular to a multidimensional displacement measuring sensor based on polymer optical fibers, which is suitable for industrially detecting displacement in a three-dimensional direction.
Background
There are some obvious problems in industrial applications that require the use of directional displacement sensors to measure two, three or more dimensional displacements. Conventional displacement sensors are of the magnetic induction, photoelectric, potentiometer, transformer, hall type, winding, capacitive type, etc. These conventional displacement sensors are relatively mature technologies and are deployed in various industrial applications. However, the conventional method has many disadvantages in addition to some advantages, and a compatible technique of such conventional techniques is an optical fiber-based system. These fiber optic sensors have the following outstanding advantages: the optical fiber sensor has the advantages of non-electrical property, explosion resistance, small volume, light weight, high precision and high accuracy, is not influenced by electromagnetic interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), and can facilitate distributed sensing.
Of the last few studies, FOS has met with great success in research and implementation in real-world environments. Most studies have been conducted on one-dimensional (1D) displacement measuring sensors, and many related technologies have been invented. One-dimensional sensing techniques used in commercial systems are based on intensity sensors, triangulation sensors, time-of-flight sensors, confocal sensors, interferometric sensors, measurements of velocity and vibration, based on continuous distance measurements and direct velocity measurements-doppler sensing. While some optical system-based measurements are multi-wavelength and scanning interferometry, frequency modulated continuous wave time-of-flight and self-mixing interferometry. All these reported methods are based on a non-contact one-dimensional displacement system, whereas the macrocurved fiber bragg grating FBG is a contact one-dimensional displacement sensor. However, under certain conditions it may still be desirable to measure one dimension in another direction, for example, the x-axis and the y-axis.
For two-dimensional measurement, a simple method is to use two one-dimensional displacement sensor suites to realize two-dimensional displacement measurement. However, deploying a suite of two one-dimensional structures, the system would be more complex and crowded and would operate as two different arrangements. This concept is inconvenient to use and increases the cost of the overall system. For two-dimensional displacement measurements, most studies have completed optical-based methods, including speckle pattern interferometry, image processing algorithms, laser doppler, and authorized interferometry. These systems are suitable for two-dimensional applications, and when sensing is required in a real physical environment but measurements in three directions are required to complete three-axis (x, y and z-axis) measurements, there is still a lack of one direction in two-dimensional displacement measurements. The present invention proposes a multi-dimensional displacement measurement system to solve this problem.
The conventional three-dimensional sensor is based on the piezoelectric semiconductor PSC method, which was first proposed by Hutson. After he, several techniques for extending the range of PSC sensors have been proposed, such as extended cell method (XFEM), extended displacement discontinuity method (EDD), Boundary Element Method (BEM), distributed dislocation method. These methods have high sensitivity and accuracy, but these systems have complex mathematical and numerical models. The 3-axis stage (XYZ) is widely used in semiconductor manufacturing and inspection machines scanning probe microscopes, optical microscopes and laser writing systems. Laser interferometers have many advantages in selecting high resolution, fast, small measurement ranges, but these systems are susceptible to environmental influences such as air humidity, air pressure and air temperature. Another system for measuring three-dimensional displacement is a combination of XY network encoders that measure the x-y axes, with the third direction, the z-axis, being measured by a capacitive displacement sensor.
To avoid environmental interference, fiber-based displacement sensors are the best choice to achieve high resolution, high accuracy and sensitivity. In a sense, there are two well-known types of optical fibers, crystal fibers and polymer fibers. Compared with standard crystal optical fiber, the polymer optical fiber has the advantages of flexibility, low cost and easy bending. However, grating fibers are used by some researchers to measure three-dimensional and multi-dimensional displacements. This method requires three FBGs and three optical filters to ensure operation at different frequencies. However, this method is expensive, requires signal processing, and cannot be widely used.
Based on the above drawbacks, a new type of multidimensional displacement sensor with low cost, high precision and high sensitivity is needed.
