Then, the synchronous reference signal frequency is changed to 2w 1 Obtaining a second harmonic signal 2 of the modulated signal of the mid-infrared laser 51f 1 . Similarly, C can be obtained by changing the corresponding frequency of the reference signal 2 H 4 And C 2 H 2 A first harmonic signal and a second harmonic signal of the same.
In the detected signal output by the digital phase-locked amplifier, due to the influence of the modulation frequencies of all lasers of the middle infrared laser array 5 and the influence of residual amplitude modulation, noise still exists to a certain extent, and the harmonic signal output by the phase-locked amplifier is further denoised by adopting an adaptive wavelet threshold filtering algorithm.
As shown in fig. 2, the implementation method of the adaptive wavelet threshold filtering algorithm is as follows: firstly, carrying out wavelet transformation on a noise-containing signal, extracting low-frequency coefficients and high-frequency coefficients of each layer after wavelet decomposition, and then estimating the mean square error of noise by the high-frequency coefficients of the first layer; the wavelet coefficients are then non-linearly thresholded. And finally, performing wavelet inverse transformation to obtain pure first harmonic signals and second harmonic signals. The nonlinear thresholding method comprises the following steps: the general threshold method proposed by Donoho is adopted to determine the initial value of the threshold, and the standard deviation of the noise signal is set asσThe signal length isNInitial threshold sizeThe wavelet coefficients of the noisy signal are compared with a selected threshold, the wavelet coefficients greater than or equal to the threshold remain unchanged, and the wavelet coefficients less than the threshold are set to zero. If the mean square error of the noise after noise elimination is larger than a preset value and the circulation times do not reach the maximum times limit, adjusting the threshold value and continuing the noise elimination process; reverse-rotationIf so, the noise cancellation process ends.
After noise elimination treatment by a self-adaptive wavelet threshold filtering algorithm, a first harmonic signal 1 with pure target gas is obtainedfAnd second harmonic signal 2fThen using the first harmonic signal 1fFor second harmonic signal 2fNormalization processing is carried out, and finally, the MCU2 is used for processing the data according to the data of 2f/1fThe linear corresponding relation of the ratio (C) to the concentration of the target gas is used for inverting the concentration of the target gas.
