Description

Double-parameter detection digital sensing system and method based on optical fiber beat frequency technology
Technical Field
The invention relates to a double-parameter detection digital sensing system and method based on an optical fiber beat frequency technology, and belongs to the technical field of information transmission.
Background
Vibration signal detection has been widely used in the fields of civil engineering, industrial engineering, engineering machinery, aerospace and the like. For applications such as seismic wave field monitoring, pipeline transmission, optical fiber hydrophones and the like, the low-frequency weak-energy vibration detection capability is very important due to the fact that the vibration frequency is low from Hz to sub-Hz and the energy is relatively weak. In addition, temperature variation is also an important factor for monitoring the engineering machinery, and is closely related to equipment failure. Therefore, the development of a high performance vibration sensor system with temperature detection and anti-electromagnetic interference capability, especially low frequency or weak energy vibration detection capable of operating in harsh environments, is very important to meet the requirements of the industry.
Compared with an electric sensor, the optical fiber vibration sensor has the inherent advantages of reliable operation, high precision, high sensitivity, strong anti-interference capability in severe environment and the like. Optical fiber vibration sensors are mainly of five types: Mach-Zehnder interferometers, Michelson interferometers, Fabry-perot (fp) cavity interferometers, Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs), Optical Frequency Domain Reflections (OFDRs), Optical Time Domain Reflections (OTDRs), and fiber lasers.
The optical fiber vibration sensor designed by a Mach-Zehnder interferometer by a scholars eliminates phase constraint in digital phase demodulation, enlarges the vibration detection range, and has the minimum detectable vibration frequency of 10 Hz. The researchers proposed a dynamic signal detection sensor based on a fiber-optics double-ring Michelson interferometer, which has good sensitivity to weak acoustic waves but has a minimum detectable vibration frequency of 500Hz, and studied a short kagomie hollow photonic crystal fiber all-fiber temperature insensitive vibration sensor based on an F-P interferometer, which has a minimum detectable vibration frequency of 1 Hz. In addition, the scholars have proposed a fiber grating sensor with pendulum structure, which uses wavelet transform method to avoid cross sensitivity of tilt and acceleration and realize the measurement of two parameters of tilt and acceleration, however, the sensor can only work under 32 Hz. The researchers have proposed a distributed vibration sensor based on OFDR and cross-correlation algorithms, which, although the accuracy is improved, has a minimum detectable frequency of 5 kHz. It has also been proposed by the authors that vibration and temperature measurements can be made by a polarized optical time domain reflectometer (P-OTDR) and a Raman Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (ROTDR), respectively. The uncertainty of the temperature measurement is 0.57 ℃, the vibration measurement at the minimum detection frequency is 100Hz, and there is cross sensitivity of temperature and vibration.
Compared with the complex optical demodulation method, the multi-longitudinal mode fiber laser sensor system has the advantages of simple structure, high sensitivity and low cost, and is widely accepted. By monitoring the frequency change of the beat signal rather than the wavelength shift of the laser, a very high sensing sensitivity can be observed.
The multi-longitudinal mode fiber laser sensor system based on the beat frequency sensing technology can demodulate parameters such as tension, pressure, temperature, vibration and the like by detecting the change of the beat frequency, such as Y.Guo, X.W.Mao, S.L.Song, Y.Ni, H.D.Wu, and X.F.Chen.Multi-longitudinal mode fiber laser digital demodulation-sensing system based on a multi-carrier modulation/modulation technique [ J ].

The system only realizes the measurement of single parameter, limits the application range, and monitors the vibration capability and the temperature change of the engineering machinery detection.

Example two:
the present embodiment provides a dual-parameter detection digital sensing system based on fiber beat frequency technology, referring to fig. 1, the system includes:

The laser 1 is used for generating laser, the laser enters the fiber laser resonant cavity 3 through the wavelength division multiplexer 2, and resonates in the fiber laser resonant cavity to generate multi-longitudinal mode and polarization mode laser. In this embodiment, the rare-earth doped fiber 32 in the resonant cavity is not heated, and only the vibration signal is applied to the fiber grating 33 in the resonant cavity. The fiber grating 33 at the end of the laser resonator is placed on the vibration exciter 4 controlled by the signal generator 6 and the power amplifier 5 as a vibration sensor. Multi-longitudinal mode and polarization mode lasers are generated in the laser cavity. Photoelectric signal conversion is carried out on the photoelectric detector 7, and a plurality of beat frequency signals with sensing information are generated, wherein the beat frequency signals comprise longitudinal mode beat frequency signals and polarization mode beat frequency signals. And (3) enabling the polarization mode beat frequency signal with the vibration sensing information to reach the data acquisition equipment 8, including a radio frequency spectrum analyzer or a general software radio peripheral, and carrying out signal monitoring and data processing by using a computer 9.
In this embodiment, the laser 1 outputs laser with a wavelength of 1480nm, the laser enters the fiber laser resonator 3 through the wavelength division multiplexer 2 with a wavelength of 1480nm &1550nm, and the fiber laser resonator 3 generates multi-longitudinal mode laser and polarization mode laser, and meanwhile, the rare earth doped fiber 32 is a sensing element for temperature detection, the fiber grating 33 is a sensing element for vibration detection, and the fiber grating 31 plays a role in frequency selection.
In practical applications, the laser 1 and the wavelength division multiplexer 2 may also use other parameters, such as a pump source with a wavelength of 980nm, a wavelength division multiplexer with a wavelength of 980nm &1550nm, etc. The fiber laser cavity 3 may also use other parameter devices, such as a faraday mirror instead of another fiber grating as a vibration sensing element, or other array structures capable of generating multi-longitudinal mode laser, such as frequency division multiplexing, wavelength division multiplexing, etc., which are not limited in this application.
In the present embodiment, the fiber gratings 31 and 33 are two fiber gratings (FBGs) with center wavelengths matched and a reflectivity of about 93%, wherein the FBG center wavelength and the 3dB bandwidth are 1549.753nm, 1549.769nm, 0.242nm and 0.229nm, respectively; an erbium doped fiber with a length of 0.8m and an absorption coefficient of 37.8dB/m at 1532 nm.
In practical application, the FBG may use other parameters according to requirements, such as a 1552nm or 1554nm FBG, the erbium-doped fiber may also use other absorption coefficients with different lengths, such as a length of 5m and an absorption coefficient of 13dB/m at 1532nm, parameters of components in the fiber laser resonator are not specifically required, as long as a polarization mode beat frequency and a multi-longitudinal mode beat frequency can be formed in the resonator, and other rare earth-doped fibers with a gain amplification effect are also suitable, such as the ytterbium-doped fiber.
The data acquisition device 8 of the embodiment includes a radio frequency spectrum analyzer and a general software radio peripheral, and other devices for data acquisition may also be used, such as a data acquisition card based on a Labview platform.
In the embodiment, the variation mode method is adopted to perform noise reduction and demodulation to obtain the vibration signal, and other methods for noise reduction and demodulation, such as Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), may also be applicable.
Different sensing parts of the fiber laser resonant cavity 3 can realize the measurement of different parameters.
In this embodiment, the process of processing the demodulation result of detecting the vibration signal by using the fiber grating 33 is as follows:
a laser with multiple longitudinal modes is generated in the laser cavity. The wavelength of which can be expressed as
Figure BDA0003407690490000071
Where n is the effective index of refraction in the cavity, L is the effective cavity length of the entire laser, and m represents the number of modes of the laser.
The fiber grating 33 sensor for vibration sensing, the reflection wavelength of which can be expressed as:
λB=2neffΛ
wherein λ isBIs a Bragg wavelength of neffThe effective refractive index of the fiber grating, Λ is the grating period. Because the fiber bragg grating is a part of the cavity of the fiber laser sensor, only the laser mode reflected by the FBG sensor can be transmitted in the fiber laser cavity, and the laser mode of the fiber laser cavity is also the laser mode reflected by the FBG sensor. Therefore, the temperature of the molten metal is controlled,
λB=λm
when an external strain is applied to the fiber grating, the wavelength variation of the fiber grating can be expressed as:
ΔλB=2neff×ΔΛ
where Δ Λ represents the change in grating period, proportional to the external strain. Therefore, the temperature of the molten metal is controlled,
ΔλB=Kεε
wherein, Δ λBAnd KεThe grating center wavelength displacement and the strain sensing coefficient are respectively, and the formula shows that the total strain of the strain sensor is in direct proportion to the change of the FBG center wavelength. When a vibration signal is applied, the dynamic microstrain caused by the vibration signal can be expressed as:
ε=Ad cos(2πfdt)
in the formula, AdAmplitude of dynamic microstrain, fdIs the frequency of the vibration signal. The frequency of the beat signal is:
Figure BDA0003407690490000072
n is the serial number of the beat signal, and c is the speed of light. In combination with the above formula, one can obtain:
Figure BDA0003407690490000073
when the FBG sensor is subjected to dynamic micro-strain, the corresponding reflection wavelength of the FBG changes, and the frequency of the beat frequency signal is as follows:
Figure BDA0003407690490000081
the formula is introduced and simplified to obtain:
Figure BDA0003407690490000082
from the above equation, it can be seen that the frequency variation of the beat signal is related to the dynamic microstrain of the application. Since the frequency variation of the beat signal is related to the wavelength variation of the FBG sensor, the sensing system can detect the dynamic micro-strain.
In the demodulation, the vibration signal is denoised and demodulated by the method of fig. 3. In the present embodiment, a polarization mode beat frequency of 122.4MHz is used to measure a 0.25Hz vibration signal applied to the exciter 4, which is generated by the signal generator 6 and amplified by the power amplifier 5, and the noise reduction decomposition is performed by the variation modal decomposition, which can be referred to fig. 3. It should be noted that, in practical applications, polarization mode beats of other frequencies can be used for vibration detection.
Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram of detecting a 0.25Hz vibration signal for a beat frequency of a 122.4MHz polarization mode in an embodiment, where fig. 4a (a) is a time-frequency signal actually acquired, fig. 4a (B) is a time-frequency diagram after noise reduction, and fig. 4B is a vibration frequency actually demodulated.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram showing the relationship between the beat frequency of different polarization modes and the amplitude of the same vibration signal.
In this embodiment, the vibration frequency obtained by demodulating the vibration signal collected by the radio frequency spectrum analyzer is shown in fig. 6A, and it can be seen that the system provided in this embodiment can measure the vibration signal by using the polarization mode beat signal, and the lowest detected vibration frequency is 0.25 Hz. In addition, the vibration frequency obtained by demodulating the vibration signal acquired by the general software radio peripheral is shown in fig. 6B, and it can be seen that the system provided by the embodiment can realize not only low-frequency vibration but also high-frequency vibration.
Fig. 7 shows the accuracy result of demodulating the dynamic signal of 0.25Hz to 5000Hz by using the system of the present invention, and it can be seen that the lowest resolution of the system in this embodiment to the frequency can reach 0.25Hz, that is, the lowest signal frequency capable of being demodulated is 0.25Hz, which has very high accuracy.
In addition, fig. 8 shows the variation of the multi-longitudinal mode beat frequency when the vibration frequency varies from 0.25Hz to 5000Hz, and it can be seen that the multi-longitudinal mode beat frequency does not vary significantly, which indicates that the longitudinal mode signal is not sensitive to the vibration signal. It should be noted that, when the frequency of the actual vibration device is not limited, the detection range can be further expanded by using the method.
Example three:
in this embodiment, on the basis of the second embodiment, when the vibration signal is not applied to the resonator, and only the rare-earth doped fiber 32 in the resonator is heated, the temperature changes from 0 to 80 ℃, the measurement is performed by the platinum resistor, and the longitudinal mode beat frequency is selected to be 1102.373MHz, and the longitudinal mode beat frequencies of other frequencies can also be used for detecting the temperature. And (3) sending the longitudinal mode beat frequency signal with the temperature sensing information to the data acquisition equipment 8, which comprises a radio frequency spectrum analyzer or a general software radio peripheral, and carrying out signal monitoring and data processing by using a computer 9. The variation of the longitudinal mode beat frequency with temperature in this embodiment is schematically shown in fig. 9, which illustrates that the longitudinal mode signal insensitive to the vibration signal can be used for temperature detection.
Example four:
in the embodiment, on the basis of the second embodiment, vibration measurement in different temperature environments is realized. A 1Hz vibration signal is applied to the fiber grating 33 in the resonant cavity while the erbium doped fiber 32 in the resonant cavity is heated to a temperature varying from 0 to 80 c. Because the polarization mode beat frequency is more sensitive to the vibration signal, the polarization mode beat frequency signal can be used for realizing the detection of vibration, and the longitudinal mode beat frequency signal can be used for realizing the detection of temperature. The vibration signals detected at different temperatures are shown in fig. 10A, and the vibration signals demodulated at different ambient temperatures can be seen from fig. 10B. It can be seen that the change in temperature does not affect the detection of the vibration signal.
When the temperature is kept constant, an experiment is carried out on the demodulation stability of the dynamic signal with the vibration frequency of 1Hz, in the experiment, the result is tested every 5 minutes within 100 minutes, as shown in FIG. 11, the highest offset is only 0.00036Hz, and the performance of the vibration sensor system is stable.
It can be seen from the above embodiments that the polarization mode beat frequency is suitable for vibration testing, and vibration demodulation is not affected by external temperature. The multi-longitudinal-mode beat frequency has good temperature sensing performance and is not influenced by external vibration, so that a vibration and temperature dual-parameter sensing system is realized, and the precision and the sensitivity are high and do not interfere with each other.
