Detailed Description
In order to make the technical means, the original characteristics, the achieved purposes and the effects of the invention easily understood, the invention is further described below with reference to the specific embodiments and the attached drawings, but the following embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the implementation, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without any creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
Specific embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The multi-channel grating demodulating device for frequency multiplexing and demultiplexing of the embodiment of the invention totally adopts 2 channels, and comprises a linear frequency-sweeping laser 1, a first optical fiber coupler 2, an optical fiber circulator 3, a second optical fiber coupler 4, an optical fiber beam splitter 5, a first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6, a first FBG optical fiber grating 7, a second FBG optical fiber grating 8, a second acousto-optic frequency shifter 9, a third FBG optical fiber grating 10, a fourth FBG optical fiber grating 11, a photoelectric detector 12, a data acquisition card 13 and a computer 14.
The output end of the linear scanning laser 1 is connected with the input end of the first optical fiber coupler 2, and two output ends of the first optical fiber coupler 2 are respectively connected with the a port of the optical fiber circulator and one input end of the second optical fiber coupler 4.
The port b of the optical fiber circulator 3 is connected with the input end of the optical fiber beam splitter 5, and the port c of the optical fiber circulator 3 is connected with the other input end of the second optical fiber coupler.
The output end of the optical fiber splitter 5 is respectively connected with one end of a first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6 and one end of a second acousto-optic frequency shifter 9 in the two channels.
In the channel 1, the other end of the first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6 is respectively connected with the first FBG fiber bragg grating 7 and the second FBG fiber bragg grating 8 in sequence.
In the channel 2, the other end of the second acoustic-optical frequency shifter 9 is sequentially connected with a third FBG fiber grating 10 and a fourth FBG fiber grating 11 respectively.
The output end of the second fiber coupler 4, that is, the beam combining end, is connected to the photodetector 12, and after the photodetector 12 is connected to the data acquisition card 13, the data acquisition card 13 is connected to the computer 14.
The invention is based on the coherent detection technology, skillfully multiplexes the frequency of multi-channel signals, and realizes the conversion of photoelectric signals in a single detector. The coherent detection technology is as follows: the linear frequency-sweeping laser 1 emits frequency-sweeping laser with linearly changing wavelength, the frequency-sweeping laser enters the first optical fiber coupler 2, the frequency-sweeping laser is divided into two paths in the first optical fiber coupler 2, one path is signal light and enters the optical fiber circulator 3, and the other path is reference light and enters the second optical fiber coupler 4.
The signal light sequentially enters the optical fiber beam splitter 5 and then respectively enters each channel. In the channel 1, the signal light enters the first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6 and then continues to enter the first FBG fiber grating 7 and the second FBG fiber grating 8, and the FBG fiber grating reflects the spectrum with a specific wavelength. The reflected spectrum returns along the path, returns to the b port of the optical fiber circulator 3, and then exits from the c port to enter the second optical fiber coupler 4, and interferes with the reference light at the second optical fiber coupler 4. In the channel 2, the signal light enters the second acoustic frequency shifter 9 and then continues to enter the third FBG fiber grating 10 and the second FBG fiber grating 11, and the FBG fiber grating reflects the spectrum with a specific wavelength. The reflected spectrum returns along the path, returns to the b port of the optical fiber circulator 3, and then exits from the c port to enter the second optical fiber coupler 4, and interferes with the reference light at the second optical fiber coupler 4.
In each channel, the paths traveled by the signal light and the reference light are different, so that the two paths of light have a distance difference, the distance difference corresponds to a time difference, and the time difference corresponds to a frequency difference. Therefore, the second fiber coupler 4 generates mixed interference, and the photodetector 12 can detect the mixed interference by using an optical heterodyne coherent detection technology.
Taking channel 1 as an example:
after the first fiber coupler 2 is split, the reference light reaches the second fiber coupler 4, and the path is A0
After the beam splitting of the first optical fiber coupler 2, the signal light is reflected back by the first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6 through the first optical fiber grating 7, and then reaches the second optical fiber coupler 4 through the optical fiber circulator 3, and the path is A1
The difference between them is
△f1=γ(|A0-A1|. n)/c formula 1
Wherein gamma is the sweep frequency speed of the laser, and the unit is nm/s (or GHz/s); n is the refractive index of the fiber and c is the speed of light.
After the beam splitting of the first optical fiber coupler 2, the signal light passes through the first acousto-optic frequency shifter 6, is reflected back by the second optical fiber grating 8, passes through the optical fiber circulator 3 and reaches the second optical fiber coupler 4, and the path is A2;
the difference between them is
△f1=γ(|A0-A2|. n)/c formula 2
Wherein gamma is the sweep frequency speed of the laser, and the unit is nm/s (or GHz/s); n is the refractive index of the fiber and c is the speed of light.
Since the sweep speed of the laser is known, the refractive index of the fiber is known, and the speed of light is known, the frequency difference and the distance difference are in a linear relationship, i.e., the position of each grating can be known by demodulating the frequency difference.
Specifically, for convenience of description, we will refer to the difference frequency as a sweep difference.
The frequency multiplexing and demultiplexing multi-channel grating demodulation in the invention refers to: in each channel, an acousto-optic frequency shifter is introduced, so that a frequency shift difference is continuously added to grating reflection spectrum signals at all positions of each channel on the premise of containing a frequency sweep difference, and half of the frequency shift amount of the frequency shift difference is larger than the frequency sweep difference (maximum frequency sweep difference frequency) of the reflection spectrum at the position of the last grating of the previous channel, and the frequency is multiplexed.
Therefore, each FBG fiber grating contains a sweep frequency difference and a shift frequency difference relative to the reference light, after frequency mixing interference of the sweep frequency difference and the shift frequency difference, the signals are converted into electric signals in the single photoelectric detector 12 and collected by the data collection card 13, fast fourier transform is realized inside the data collection card 13, and the grating spectrum at each position of each channel is solved, which is frequency demultiplexing.
The core of the invention is that the multi-channel temperature and strain demodulation is realized by utilizing a single linear frequency-sweeping laser 1, a single photoelectric detector 12 and a single-channel acquisition card 13. The key means is to add an acousto-optic frequency shifter in each channel and set different frequency shift amount. And the frequency sections of each channel are staggered, each signal light is subjected to frequency modulation by different acousto-optic frequency shifters, the signal light processed by the different acousto-optic frequency shifters returns to the optical fiber circulator 3 along a path, and finally interferes with the reference light at the second optical fiber coupler 4.
Particularly, since the signal light passes through the acousto-optic frequency shifter twice, in order to ensure that the frequency difference of any two paths does not overlap, the invention requires that half of the frequency shift amount of each channel must be greater than the maximum sweep frequency difference frequency of the previous path, that is:
△mm>2△(fnm-1 formula 3
Wherein m is a channel number,. DELTA.mmAnd n is the sweep frequency difference between the last grating reflection spectrum of any channel and the reference light.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of grating reflectivity-distance obtained by fast fourier transform of data acquired by the data acquisition card 13. As shown in FIG. 2, the abscissa is distance, i.e., frequency difference, and the ordinate is reflectivity, 0- Δ m1Within the frequency difference of/2, the position information reflection signals of the first FBG fiber grating 7 and the second FBG fiber grating 8 in the first channel are within the range of Deltam1/2-△m2The frequency difference of/2 is the position information reflection signal of the third FBG fiber grating 10 and the fourth FBG fiber grating 11 of the second channel.
Therefore, the positions of all FBG fiber gratings of all channels are completely unfolded, each aliasing can demodulate all grating spectrums of all channels only by corresponding each grating to the obtained reflection spectrum through simple positioning, and the position precision positioning can reach millimeter magnitude.
The fiber grating demodulation is as follows: and taking the independent window as a unit for carrying out secondary data processing, namely, inverse Fourier transform on the FBG fiber bragg grating after each frequency is demultiplexed. As shown in fig. 3, taking the fourth FBG fiber grating 11 as an example, the distance domain information of the fourth FBG fiber grating 11 is subjected to window inverse fourier transform to obtain the spectrum information of the whole frequency-swept laser.
It is specifically noted here that the spectrum reflected by the linear swept-frequency laser 1 after entering the FBG fiber grating is the spectral information of the specific wavelength of the FBG fiber grating, and the spectral information may drift under the external temperature strain.
The purpose of performing a windowed inverse fourier transform on the range domain signal is to obtain a swept-frequency spectral signal.
The FBG fiber bragg gratings corresponding to different difference frequencies are accurately positioned through frequency multiplexing and demultiplexing and through two times of Fourier transformation, and spectrum inversion is realized.
After window Fourier transform, the spectrum signal of each FBG fiber grating is obtained, the drift of the abscissa corresponding to the highest point is only needed to be found for the spectrum information, the change amount of the temperature strain can be obtained according to the temperature strain and spectrum frequency shift formula, and the speed is remarkably improved. The strain can be demodulated in the same way.
The device remarkably improves the spectral signal-to-noise ratio through a coherent detection technology. The frequency multiplexing technology is applied to fiber bragg grating demodulation for the first time, signals after frequency mixing interference are converted into distance domain signals through fast Fourier transform, and the distance domain signals can be used for carrying out window inverse Fourier transform to obtain spectral information of each grating after the position of each fiber bragg grating is accurately positioned.
The device and the method can realize large-scale fiber grating array demodulation, the demodulation speed is obviously improved, and the coherent detection technology is adopted, so that the device and the method have the advantages of high grating spectrum signal-to-noise ratio, obviously improved accuracy and stability of temperature strain measurement, and are particularly suitable for high-accuracy collision vibration test.
The multichannel parallel grating demodulation device and method based on frequency multiplexing and demultiplexing specifically comprise several steps
Firstly, setting the frequency shift amount of an acousto-optic frequency shifter in each channel by adopting a frequency multiplexing technology, so that the FBG fiber bragg grating carries out frequency shift on the spectrum reflected by the frequency-swept laser, and acquiring an interference signal of a second fiber coupler by utilizing an optical heterodyne detection technology to obtain the frequency shift amount of the acousto-optic frequency shifter and the frequency-swept amount of the frequency-swept laser;
secondly, performing fast Fourier transform operation on the mixed interference signals in the acquired interference signals in an acquisition card to obtain the spectral reflection intensity of each position of different channels, so as to realize the positioning of each FBG fiber grating;

and fourthly, finding the abscissa corresponding to the maximum value of the reflection spectrum of each FBG based on the spectral response information, and quickly demodulating the temperature or the strain by combining a temperature strain demodulation formula.
It should be noted that, for better explaining the apparatus and scheme, the present invention only gives an example of 2 FBG fiber gratings for 2 channels, and 4 FBG demodulators. It will be appreciated that the invention is equally applicable to channels greater than 2, 1 or greater than 2 FBG fibre gratings per channel.
