[specific embodiment]
In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, right The present invention is further elaborated.It should be appreciated that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention, and It is not used in the restriction present invention.
In the description of the present invention, term "inner", "outside", " longitudinal direction ", " transverse direction ", "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", The orientation or positional relationship of the instructions such as "left", "right", "front", "rear" is to be based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only For ease of description the present invention rather than require the present invention that must be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, therefore be not construed as Limitation of the present invention.As long as in addition, technical characteristic involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below that Not constituting conflict between this can be combined with each other.
As described in the background art, traditional Distributed Optical Fiber Sensing Techniques mainly have in Fiber Bragg Grating technology, optical fiber cloth Deep sensing technology, Raman optical time domain reflection technology, polarized-light technique, polarized light time domain reflection technology etc..In the present invention, mainly The optical fiber sensing technology utilized is Fiber Bragg Grating technology, Raman optical time domain reflection technology and polarized-light technique, each Fibre Optical Sensor skill Art is described below:
The sensing principle of Raman optical time domain reflection technology is: generating Stokes when laser pulse is propagated in a fiber and draws Graceful scattering light and anti-Stokes Raman scatter light, and two kinds of scattered light intensities will receive the influence of temperature (and to other parameters It is insensitive), but the index of modulation is different;The index of modulation and measured luminous flux of light are scattered by two kinds of different frequencies Analysis, can judge the variation of temperature.The technology can be to temperature sensing, and carries out quantitative analysis, but disadvantage is to be only capable of surveying Amount temperature parameter.
The sensing principle of Fiber Bragg Grating technology is: in a fiber in point type or the quasi-distributed multiple optical fiber Braggs of inscription Grating (FiberBragg Grating, be abbreviated as FBG), when the extraneous factor that can be responded changes, effective folding of optical fiber Penetrating the parameters such as rate and screen periods can change, and then the resonance wavelength of FBG is made to change;Pass through measurement resonance wavelength Variation, can be realized the sensing to ambient enviroment parameter.But for multi-parameter sensing task, due to temperature and strain equal energy The resonance wavelength of sensor fibre is set to change, therefore, when merely with Fiber Bragg Grating technology (grating demodulation instrument is used only), It can only judge there is temperature or strain event, temperature and strain can not be distinguished, it more difficult to which temperature and strain are determined respectively Amount analysis.Meanwhile Fiber Bragg Grating technology can only realize point, quasi-distributed sensing, also can only just detect has at the position where FBG Without friction, strain or temperature change, and can't detect when vibration, strain or temperature change occur for other positions, therefore The state of whole optical fiber can not be obtained merely with Fiber Bragg Grating technology, can only obtain the state of specific position.
According to the These characteristics of Fiber Bragg Grating technology and Raman optical time domain reflection technology, (i.e. Fiber Bragg Grating technology can pass simultaneously Temperature-sensitive degree and strain, but it is difficult to differentiate between and distinguishes quantitative analysis, and Raman optical time domain reflection technology is only capable of quantitatively dividing temperature Analysis), the present invention consideration two kinds of technologies are combined, it is expected that realize temperature and strain while sensing, can distinguish and respectively into The quantitative analysis of trip temperature and strain.
The sensing principle of polarized-light technique is: when light is propagated in a fiber, polarization state can constantly change;Work as optical fiber It is in stable condition when, the variation of polarization state is relatively stable and slowly varying;And when vibration or stress occur, polarization state meeting It mutates, which intuitively shows as the variation of light intensity after analyzer.The technology can to disturbance realize whether there is or not determine Property analysis, if any vibration occur, can according to detected pulse strength change frequency demodulation go out vibrate frequency;Disadvantage exists In when any point has vibration or stress to occur in optical fiber, receiving end optical pulse intensity can change, therefore can not conclude Locale.
For the disadvantages mentioned above of polarized-light technique, polarized light time domain reflection technology can be directly used instead, this technology detects arteries and veins certainly After punching issues, the time relationship proportional to corresponding fiber position that received signal reaches is able to conclude that event Place;However what polarized light time domain reflection technology utilized is scattering light in optical fiber, signal is weaker, may to improve signal-to-noise ratio Multiple averaging is needed, dynamic response capability is relatively low.Therefore, the present invention consider by polarized-light technique and Fiber Bragg Grating technology into Row combines: as it was noted above, polarized-light technique can sense the stress and vibration event of optical fiber all the points, but can not differentiate position It sets;And Fiber Bragg Grating technology can be monitored the state of stop position.Two kinds of technologies are combined and are capable of forming to a certain degree On complementation.
Just with reference to drawings and examples, in conjunction with coming, the present invention will be described in detail below.
