Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention refers to the accompanying drawings.
As shown in fig. 1, the long-distance distributed optical fiber vibration detection system of the present invention includes a laser generator, a 1 × 2 optical fiber coupler, a 2 × 2 optical fiber coupler, an acousto-optic modulator, two erbium-doped amplifiers, two optical narrow-band filters, a circulator, a detection optical cable, a balance detector, a pulse generator, an electrical signal amplifier, a high-speed acquisition card, and an upper computer.
The 1 x2 optical fiber coupler divides a laser light source into two paths according to a proportion, wherein one path is used as local oscillator light, the other path is used as signal light, and the light splitting ratio of the 1 x2 optical fiber coupler is selected to be 80 according to the saturated input optical power of the balance detector and the output optical power of the narrow linewidth laser: 20 (20% of the output optical power of the laser is used as the local oscillator light, and 80% of the output optical power is used as the signal light), so that the power of the optical signal after the local oscillator light and the rayleigh scattered light are coherent can reach the optimal output effect of the signal after being input into the balanced detector.
The signal light enters the detection optical cable through the acousto-optic modulator, the erbium-doped amplifier, the optical narrow-band filter and the circulator, the erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier amplifies the detection light pulse, and the energy of the detection light pulse can be transmitted farther. The erbium-doped fiber amplifier is followed by a filter with the center wavelength of 1550.12 nm and the bandwidth of 0.2 nm, and part of the spontaneous emission (ASE) of the EDFA is filtered out.
The Rayleigh scattered light is coherent with the local oscillator light after being coupled by the circulator, the erbium-doped amplifier, the optical narrow-band filter and the 2x2 optical fiber. The erbium-doped fiber amplifier amplifies the returned Rayleigh scattering light and improves the energy value of the Rayleigh scattering light, so that beat frequency energy of local oscillation light and scattering light is increased, and a better signal-to-noise ratio is obtained during photoelectric conversion. The erbium-doped fiber amplifier is followed by a filter with a central wavelength of 1550.12 nm and a bandwidth of 0.2 nm. Because the rayleigh scattered back signal is very small, the influence of spontaneous emission (ASE) noise of an EDFA (erbium-doped fiber amplifier) on the scattered signal is large, most of the spontaneous emission (ASE) is filtered out after a narrow-band filter is additionally arranged, and the rayleigh scattered signal can pass through without damage, so that the signal-to-noise ratio is improved.
The balance detector detects the coherent optical signal and is connected with an electric signal amplifier, and the high-speed acquisition card is connected with the electric signal amplifier; the pulse generator is connected with the acousto-optic modulator to modulate the signal light; the high-speed acquisition card is connected with the upper computer and starts to acquire data after receiving the trigger signal.
The high-speed data acquisition card is adopted to carry out oversampling acquisition on signals, and the acquired data are accumulated in space, so that the signal-to-noise ratio of the system is improved. The distance of the detection optical cable is 50 kilometers, the pulse width sent by the pulse generator is 100 nanoseconds, the period is 500 microseconds periodic signals, the sampling frequency of the data acquisition card is 250M/S, 2000 groups of data are acquired by the data acquisition card within one second (the number of groups acquired per second is determined by the period of the signals sent by the pulse generator), and the number of sampling points of each group of data is 125000 points. Because the pulse width of the system is 100 nanoseconds, in order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the system without influencing the spatial resolution, each group of continuous 25 data is accumulated, and 125000 point data is converted into 5000 point data.
