Description

Distributed sensing system based on Michelson-Sagnac fiber optic interferometer
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of optical fiber sensing, and particularly relates to a distributed sensing system based on a Michelson-Sagnac optical fiber interferometer.
Background
Distributed optical fiber sensors are often applied to the fields of perimeter security, oil pipe leakage monitoring, power cable damage monitoring, bridge safety monitoring and the like. The optical fiber integrates sensing and transmission, can carry out continuous vibration or temperature measurement on the whole length of the optical fiber, and simultaneously obtains the specific position to be measured. The distributed optical fiber sensing system based on the Michelson optical fiber interferometer has the characteristics of two-arm sensing and high sensitivity to low-frequency signals. However, in the distributed sensing and positioning application using the structure, no matter based on time delay estimation or a notch point algorithm, the distributed sensing and positioning method is not suitable for the low-frequency vibration condition. The Sagnac-based fiber optic interferometer has a differential effect and can naturally isolate a certain degree of environmental impact. However, part of the low frequency vibration signal is also filtered out, which has certain disadvantages in the sensing and positioning application of the small disturbance signal. The invention is based on a Michelson-Sagnac fusion interferometer, and the disturbance of a sensing path is obtained and the positioning is realized by the methods of phase reduction and signal processing. The advantages of the two interferometers are fully utilized, and the function of disturbance positioning can be realized by utilizing the vibration lower than 200 Hz.

Detailed Description
The following further describes embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings.
The distributed sensing system based on the Michelson-Sagnac optical fiber interferometer is shown in figure 1, a narrow-band laser adopted by the distributed sensing system is a distributed feedback laser (DFB) with the center wavelength of 1550.12nm, a wide-spectrum light source adopts a super-radiation light-emitting diode (SLD), and the coupled laser is used as an injection light source after being coupled through a 200G filter with the center wavelength of 1550.12 nm. The laser light enters the 3 x 3 fiber coupler and is split into three beams of light of equal power, one of which is coupled out of the core as it passes through the knotted fiber. The optical isolator eliminates optical reflection, and four photodetectors PD1, PD2, PD3, and PD4 are used for photoelectric conversion. Between wavelength division multiplexer 2(WDM2) and wavelength division multiplexer 3(WDM3) there is a delay fiber (TDF) which is located at the centre of the fibre loop centre. This ensures that the Sagnac interferometer has a high ability to respond to common disturbances and eliminates detection dead zones. A Polarization Controller (PC) is used to ensure the interference stability of the Sagnac interferometer. The demodulation scheme using a 3 x 3 optical coupler has the advantages of passive detection and low cost because it does not require phase or frequency modulation in the reference arm or laser and therefore has no active components in the optical domain. In the fiber loop, laser light emitted from the DFB will be reflected by faraday rotating mirror 1(FRM1) and faraday rotating mirror 2(FRM2), which makes the two paths of light work as a Michelson interferometer, and interference signals are received by PD1 and PD3 and converted into electrical signals. The light emitted from the SLD is split into two paths of clockwise and counterclockwise light, and the interference signals are received and converted into electrical signals by the PD2 and the PD 4. A computer with an acquisition card with a sampling rate of 500kS/s is used for acquiring photoelectric signals and demodulating phase difference information, and the disturbance intensity and position can be judged through an algorithm in a flow chart shown in figure 2. Fig. 3 and 4 show phase difference signals of the Michelson interferometer and the Sagnac interferometer after the disturbances are demodulated. Fig. 5 and 6 show signals obtained after demodulation and processing at 40km when external disturbance directly acts on the sensing arm 1 and the sensing arm 2. Fig. 7 and 8 show signals obtained after demodulation and processing when external disturbance acts on the sensing arm 1 and the sensing arm 2 for 40km through soil layers. It can be seen that the two paths of signals have fixed time delay, and the disturbance position information can be obtained through the time delay.

Figure FDA0003099886570000034
wherein, I0Which is indicative of the intensity of the output light,

Then, the initial direction of the phase difference amplitude is judged, and the sensing arm acted by the disturbance can be distinguished.
