The output end of the acousto-optic modulator outputs main vibration light which is sent to the transmitting device (2), and the other beam is used as local vibration light. The frequency of the laser changes to generate fixed frequency shift after the laser passes through the acousto-optic modulator. The main vibration light is transmitted to the air through the transmitting device 2 and the laser reflecting unit 3 to measure Doppler shift caused by the air, the echo signal carrying the Doppler shift signal is sequentially transmitted to the coupler 5 through the laser reflecting unit 3 and the receiving device 4 to be input into the coupler 5 together with the local vibration light signal sent by the laser generating unit 1 to be coupled, the light signal at the output end of the coupler 5 is transmitted to the photoelectric differential detector 6, the photoelectric differential detector 6 converts the light signal into an electric signal and then transmits the electric signal to the processing control unit 7 to be processed, and then the air Doppler shift signal is detected to obtain the atmospheric wind speed.
The transmitting device 2 comprises a transmitting optical fiber 24 and a first beam expander 23 which are sequentially arranged on a laser transmitting optical axis 9, the main vibration light is transmitted through the transmitting optical fiber 24 and then passes through the first beam expander 23 to be emitted out of the transmitting device 2, and a transmitting moving assembly for driving the end face to move is further arranged at the output end face of the transmitting optical fiber 24. The launch moving assembly comprises a first fixing piece 21 for fixing the output end face of the launch optical fiber 24, and a launch translation stage 22, wherein the launch translation stage 22 is used for fixing the first fixing piece 21 and driving the optical fiber end face thereon to move in a set direction.
The receiving device 4 comprises a second beam expander 43 and a receiving optical fiber 44 which are sequentially arranged on the laser receiving optical axis 10, the receiving light passing through the second beam expander 43 is input into the input end face of the receiving optical fiber 44, and a receiving moving assembly for adjusting the position of the end face is arranged at the input end face of the receiving optical fiber 44. The receiving and moving assembly comprises a second fixing piece 41 for fixing the input end face of the receiving optical fiber 44, and a receiving translation table 42, wherein the receiving translation table 42 is used for fixing the second fixing piece 41 and driving the optical fiber end face thereon to move in a set direction.
The movement of the emission translation stage 22 enables the emission laser to be focused at different heights; and simultaneously, the position of the receiving translation stage 42 is adjusted to realize the echo signal at the focus of the emitted laser, and the receiving translation stage 42 moves so that the input end face of the receiving optical fiber 44 is always positioned at the focus of the receiving device.
In this embodiment, the structure of the transmitting device 2 and the receiving device are the same, i.e., mass production is possible, and the production cost is reduced.
The laser reflection unit 3 includes an emission optical adjustment lens 31, a receiving optical adjustment lens 32, and a blade prism 33, where the emission optical adjustment lens 31 reflects incident light emitted by the emission device 2 to an upper edge position of a coated surface of the blade prism 33 and then reflects the incident light to the atmosphere, and the receiving optical adjustment lens 32 continues to reflect the received light to a second beam expander 43 in the receiving device 4 after the upper edge position of another coated surface of the blade prism 33 reflects the received light to the receiving optical adjustment lens 32. The angles of the transmitting optical adjustment lens 31 and the receiving optical adjustment lens 32 are adjustable. The functions of the transmitting optical adjustment lens 31, the receiving optical adjustment lens 32, and the blade prism 33 in the optical lens group 3 are: the upper edge of the emission light beam is overlapped with the upper edge of the blade prism, the upper edge of the receiving light beam is overlapped with the upper edge of the blade prism, and the included angle between the emission optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 can be as small as possible through two overlapping operations, so that the overlapping area of the two light beams is increased, and the echo signal intensity is further increased. The blade prism 33 is provided with a diaphragm 8 in a direction parallel to the laser receiving optical axis 10. When the transmitting translation stage 22 moves, the direction of the transmitting light beam is changed, and the laser irradiated to the upper edge of the blade prism 33 is diffracted, so that part of the laser is directly incident into the receiving device 4; and the laser forward scattered light may also enter the receiving means 4. The signal intensity of the direct or forward scattered light of the emitting device 2 is much stronger than the backscattered signal intensity of the measuring altitude air. The diaphragm 8 closely connected with the upper edge of the blade prism 33 plays a role in avoiding interference of the transmitted beam signal with the received signal, and the transmitting device 2 and the receiving device 4 are completely independent.
The specific method for using the system is as follows:
s1, adjusting the emitting device 2 and the receiving device 4 to enable a laser emitting optical axis 9 of the emitting device 2 and a laser receiving optical axis 10 of the receiving device 4 to be located on the same plane, wherein the plane is a plane A;
s2, determining displacement surfaces of the transmitting mobile assembly and the receiving mobile assembly, and ensuring that the displacement surfaces of the transmitting mobile assembly and the receiving mobile assembly are parallel to a plane A;
s3, a processing control unit 7 controls the included angle between the moving direction of the transmitting moving assembly and the laser transmitting optical axis 9, and the position of the focusing focus of the transmitting laser is ensured to be always on the laser transmitting optical axis 9 in the moving process of the transmitting moving assembly; meanwhile, the processing control unit 7 ensures that the echo signal at the focus of the emitted laser is always coupled into the receiving optical fiber 44 at the focus of the receiving device 4 by adjusting the position of the receiving mobile component;
s4, calibrating according to the theoretical relation between the included angle alpha of the laser emission optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 and the positions of the emission mobile assembly and the receiving mobile assembly in the moving process of the emission mobile assembly and the receiving mobile assembly, so as to obtain the included angle between the laser emission optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 according to the translation amount of the emission mobile assembly and the receiving mobile assembly, and further obtain the measuring height of the radar;
s5, after the echo signals with the designated height pass through the coupler 5 and the local oscillation light beat frequency, the photoelectric differential detector 6 converts the beat frequency signals which are the optical signals into electric signals, and the electric signals are transmitted to the processing control unit 7 for fast Fourier transformation, so that the radial wind speed of the current point is obtained.
When the system further includes the laser reflection unit 3, in step S1, the angles of the laser emission lens 31 and the laser receiving lens 32 in the laser reflection unit 3 need to be adjusted so that the laser emission optical axis 9 of the emission device 2 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 of the receiving device 4 are located on the same plane; in step S3, when the moving direction of the output end face of the emission optical fiber 24 changes with the included angle of the laser emission optical axis 9, the emission optical adjusting lens 31 is moved to realize the coincidence of the emission light edge and the upper edge of the blade prism; meanwhile, the receiving optical adjusting lens 32 is moved, so that the included angle between the laser transmitting optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 is as small as possible on the premise that the transmitting device 2 and the receiving device 4 keep no light cutting.
In order to realize the most basic principle of the present application, the laser reflection unit 3 in fig. 1 is removed to obtain a schematic diagram as shown in fig. 2.
In the figure, the X-O-Y plane represents a plane a in which the emission optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 are located, the displacement planes of the emission translation stage 22 and the receiving translation stage 42 are parallel to the plane a, the Y axis is parallel to the laser receiving optical axis 10, and the X axis is parallel to the central line of the first beam expander 23 and the second beam expander 43. The output end face of the transmitting optical fiber 24 mounted thereon is moved accordingly by the transmitting translation stage 22, causing the orientation of the transmitting optical axis 9 to change in the a-plane. The distance between the system and the position of the intersection of the laser light emitting axis 9 and the laser light receiving axis 10 represents the detection distance of the radar. The driving movement direction of the receiving translation stage 42 is parallel to or coincides with the laser receiving optical axis 10, and the corresponding optical fiber end surfaces are respectively and simultaneously driven to move at the transmitting translation stage 22 and the receiving translation stage 42, so that the focus of the air scattering signal at the intersection point of the laser transmitting optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 on the second beam expander 43 just falls on the input end surface of the receiving optical fiber 44.
The output end face of the transmitting optical fiber 24 is driven to move by the transmitting translation stage 22The position of the focal point of the radiation beam is also changed, and the installation angle β of the radiation translation stage 22 is calculated by calculating such that the radiation beam focal point is exactly at the intersection point of the laser radiation optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 when the output end face of the radiation optical fiber 24 is moved in the moving direction. The method for determining the included angle alpha comprises the following steps: firstly, determining the distance delta between the center point of the first beam expander 23 and the center point of the second beam expander 43; next, a virtual measuring point (x, y) is determined on the laser receiving optical axis 10, the included angle alpha between the laser transmitting optical axis 9 passing through the measuring point and the laser receiving optical axis 10 is calculated, and the center distance between the measuring point and the first beam expander 23 is calculatedWherein (x, y) 0 ) Is the center position coordinate of the second beam expander 43. Then, the image distance v of the measurement point imaged by the first beam expander 23 is calculated according to the object-image relationship. Finally, the output end face position coordinates (x ', y') of the transmitting optical fiber 24 are calculated:
by the above formula, two groups of included angles α and the coordinates of the positions of the output end surfaces of the corresponding transmitting optical fibers 24 are calculated, and the installation angle β of the transmitting translation stage 22 is calculated.
After the theoretical relationship among the position coordinates of the output end face of the transmitting optical fiber 24, the focusing focal point coordinates of the transmitting laser, and the installation angle β of the transmitting translation stage 22 is obtained, the relationship between the displacement amount of the transmitting translation stage 22 and the included angle α of the laser transmitting optical axis 9 and the laser receiving optical axis 10 can be easily calculated according to the geometric relationship. However, since the initial position of the emission translation stage 22 is relative, when the correspondence between the theoretical coordinate and the actual position is not established yet, it is necessary to calibrate the emission laser focusing positions (x, y) and the output end face positions (x ', y') of the emission optical fiber 24 once under the actual atmospheric condition, so as to achieve the correspondence between the theoretical coordinate system and the actual position. After calibration, the measurement height of the radar can be calculated according to the relation between the translational amount of the transmitting translational stage 22 and the included angle alpha.
The measured height and the position of the receiving translation stage 42 accord with the basic object-image relationship; after one calibration, the corresponding relationship between the object-image relationship and the position of the receiving translation stage 42 can be established. After the corresponding relation between the theoretical movement position and the actual position of the output end face of the transmitting optical fiber 24 and the input end face of the receiving optical fiber 44 is determined, the transmitting translation stage 22 and the receiving translation stage 42 can be quantitatively controlled by the processing control unit 7 under the actual atmospheric condition, so that the measurement of wind fields with different heights can be realized. In the application, the launching translation stage 22 only needs to move unidirectionally and does not need to move in one two-dimensional direction, so that the workload of adjusting the launching translation stage 22 is reduced, and meanwhile, a driving structure and a guiding structure which are required to move in one dimension can be saved, thereby saving the system cost.
According to the design, the Doppler frequency shift signal caused by the air movement with the height of 8 meters is measured in the actual atmosphere, and the test result is shown in fig. 3; the test result proves that the application has the capability of measuring the atmospheric wind field within 10 meters at low altitude, thereby achieving the expected purpose. At the same time, by electrically controlling the positions of the transmitting translation stage 22 and the receiving translation stage 42, doppler frequency shift signals are caused for the wind speeds of 16 meters in height and 280 meters in height.
The atmospheric visibility of the test period was measured by using a visibility meter, and the measurement result showed that the visibility exceeded 50 km, which was a very clean air test condition. The lower the visibility, the stronger the echo signal, the easier the test, and the higher the visibility, the more difficult the test is. In addition, in order to further verify the system capacity, the whole system is arranged on a supporting platform, a two-dimensional scanning turntable is arranged below the supporting platform, and the two-dimensional scanning turntable realizes rotation in the horizontal plane direction and rotation in the vertical direction. The measured Doppler shift signal of 280 meters in height varies with the azimuth angle of rotation of the two-dimensional turntable as shown in FIG. 4. The system can obtain Doppler frequency shift signals with 8 meters height, particularly 280 meters height at the low altitude under the clean atmosphere condition that the visibility exceeds 50 km based on the rotation azimuth angle of the two-dimensional turntable, the experimental result is shown in fig. 5, and the experimental result verifies that the method can measure not only low altitude wind fields but also wind fields with other heights, and proves the feasibility of the adopted method.
The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application, and any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of the present application.
