Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and examples, in order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the embodiments of the invention are merely schematic illustrations of the basic concepts of the invention, and thus only the components related to the invention are shown in the drawings, rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, and the form, number and proportion of each component in actual implementation may be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may be more complex.
In the present invention, it should also be noted that, as terms such as "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", and the like are used, the indicated orientation or positional relationship is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, only for convenience of description and simplification of the description, and does not indicate or imply that the indicated apparatus or element must have a specific orientation, be configured and operated in the specific orientation, and thus should not be construed as limiting the present application. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, as used herein, are used for descriptive and distinguishing purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying a relative importance.
The method is mainly used for effectively eliminating the situation that the signal intensity of the point to be detected randomly jumps due to low-frequency disturbance noise of interference signals and dynamic change of polarization states in disturbance environments, and the original signal peak shape is recovered with high signal-to-noise ratio, so that the signals are more stable and the positioning is more accurate.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1A, the method for measuring an anti-disturbance ambient signal based on white light interferometry of this embodiment includes the following steps:
s1, adjusting the optical path of reference light in a reference arm to enable the reference light to generate beat frequency interference with signal light passing through an event point to be detected, and generating a time domain interference signal; the reference light and the signal light are formed by splitting broad spectrum light emitted by a white light source;
s2, regulating the polarization state of the reference light to obtain a time domain interference signal under a certain polarization direction included angle;
s3, carrying out Fourier transform on the time domain interference signal to obtain a frequency domain signal, and carrying out low-frequency filtering; performing inverse Fourier transform on the filtered frequency domain signals to obtain time domain interference spectrums, and normalizing the time domain interference spectrums to obtain interference peaks;
s4, repeating the measurement for a plurality of times, and adjusting the angle of the polarization state of the reference light to cover a complete period to obtain N beat frequency interference signals and N interference peaks correspondingly;
s5, convolving the N times of interference peaks to obtain a convolution result of the time domain interference peaks;
s6, carrying out Lorentz curve fitting on the convolution result of the time domain interference peak to obtain a signal which finally eliminates the environmental disturbance.
In step S2, in one beat frequency interference, the polarization state of the reference light may be randomly changed, each time the polarization state is adjusted, the measurement result is scanned once for the measurement point, the K results are measured when the polarization state is adjusted for K times, and the maximum value of all interference peaks is taken as the measurement result of the final peak. The polarization state is adjusted by the following steps: all polarization directions can be adjusted once in each beat frequency interference, namely 360-degree traversal and rapid scanning are realized; or can be fixed in a certain direction, and can be adjusted to a different fixed direction before waiting for the next measurement, and can be traversed for 360 degrees after multiple measurements. When the polarization state is regulated once, namely the two corresponding arms interfere once with the current polarization included angle, the probability of smaller included angle of the two polarization is larger after multiple measurement, at the moment, the included angle of the polarization states of the two corresponding paths is the smallest when the maximum value of all interference peaks is selected, and the included angle is 0, namely the same direction, at the moment, the real reflection intensity of the event point to be measured is most approximate, and the more the measurement times are, the larger the probability of the same direction is, the more accurate and the more stable the measurement signal is.
Further, since white light is a broad spectrum light, its coherence length is extremely short (generally in the order of um to several tens of um, it can be approximately considered that coherence occurs when the lengths of the reference arm and the measurement arm are completely equal, therefore, in step S1, the optical path length of the reference light is continuously adjusted by controlling the optical fiber delay line in the reference arm, and beat interference occurs when the optical path length of the reference light is equal to the optical path length of the signal light passing through the event point to be measured in the measurement arm.
Further, when Lorentz curve fitting is performed in step S6, specifically, the highest amplitude of the N interference peaks is taken as the peak point of the fitted curve, the average value of the median points of the N interference peaks is taken as the midpoint of the fitted curve, and the average value of the half-height width of the N interference peaks is taken as the half-height width of the fitted curve. Because the position of the event point to be detected is unchanged, and each delay line scanning and data acquisition are synchronous, theoretically, the width and the center point position of each interference peak are completely the same, and the half-height width and the center position of the peak are averaged, so that the system error can be reduced, and the precision is improved.
In one embodiment of the invention, the fiber optic delay line can change the optical path of light passing therethrough by controlling scanning, thereby changing the overall reference arm length (optical path). For example, the fiber delay line can continuously change the optical path of light passing through the fiber delay line by moving the position of the internal reflector, thereby continuously changing the arm length of the reference arm.
FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the contrast of beat signals of a white light interferometry system in a steady state and a disturbance state; because disturbance or environmental noise is generally low frequency, such as tens of kHz or hundreds of kHz, and light frequency is generally in the range of THz magnitude, beat frequency detection is a mainstream signal detection means, the beat frequency mentioned in the foregoing is a beat frequency term part of a signal, no matter whether the light signal is a single frequency or a broad spectrum in a certain range, the beat frequency after beat frequency interference is not affected, and the final frequency is subtracted to become a moving fixed frequency, so that the beat frequency of the signal can be more easily separated from the low frequency disturbance, and signal acquisition is facilitated. The fixed frequency of reference light movement Δf is the beat frequency, so that the magnitude of Δf determines the detection and demodulation of the signal. If the fixed frequency deltaf is shifted to tens of MHz or hundreds of MHz, the signal detection filtering is convenient, and the environmental disturbance is isolated.
Therefore, the method and the device completely eliminate the phenomena of peak value splitting, sawtooth deformation and the like of a measurement signal result curve of the white light interferometry system under a disturbance environment by adjusting modes such as polarization state, frequency domain transformation, convolution, curve fitting replacement and the like, and can also eliminate other low-frequency noise caused by environmental disturbance. The final test result can have a very beautiful peak curve and an excellent signal to noise ratio in a dynamically changing measuring environment. Under the condition of ensuring that the positioning precision is unchanged and the peak value height is more accurate and stable, the limitation that the original white light interference system can only obtain a stable test result by measuring in a static environment is perfectly solved, and the application scene of the white light interference technology is greatly widened.
Example 2
This embodiment is based on embodiment 1 and is mainly a system embodiment for implementing the method of embodiment 1.
As shown in fig. 1B, the system for measuring an immunity environment signal based on white light interferometry of this embodiment mainly includes:
the reference arm adjusting module is used for adjusting reference light in the reference arm to enable the reference light to generate beat frequency interference with signal light passing through an event point to be detected, and generating a time domain interference signal; the reference light and the signal light are formed by splitting broad spectrum light emitted by a white light source;

a second optical fiber coupler 8, in which the incident signal light of the measuring arm and the reference light of the reference arm are coupled to each other, and beat interference occurs;
the control and signal acquisition module 9 is used for controlling acquisition of beat interference signals;
the signal processor 10 is configured to perform signal processing by using the method based on white light interferometry anti-disturbance environment signal according to the above technical scheme, so as to obtain a final anti-disturbance environment signal. The signal processor 10 may be a computer.
As shown in fig. 1C, specifically, a measuring arm 11 and a reference arm 12 of the device for measuring signals in a disturbance environment based on white light interferometry are connected in parallel between the first optical fiber coupler 1 and the second optical fiber coupler 8, the measuring arm 11 comprises an optical fiber circulator 6, and the reference arm 12 comprises a frequency shifter 3, an optical fiber delay line 4 and an electric polarization controller 5 which are connected in sequence. The frequency shifter 3 may shift the frequency of the light up or down by a certain fixed frequency by some modulation means. The optical fiber delay line 4 can change the optical path length of light passing therethrough by controlling scanning, thereby changing the entire reference arm length (optical path length). The electro-polarization controller 5 randomly changes the polarization state of the light to either direction by changing the shape of the fiber. The control and signal acquisition module can also control the operation and work of the optical fiber delay line 4, the frequency shifter 3 and the electric polarization controller 5, and acquire signal data after beat frequency interference.
Further, the polarization type of the white light source may be a single mode, and the wavelength of the white light source may be in the O-band (wavelength range 1530nm to 1565 nm), the C-band (wavelength range 1530nm to 1565 nm), or the L-band (wavelength range 1530nm to 1565 nm) or the like.
The output end of the white light source 1 is connected with the input end of the first optical fiber coupler 2, one path of the output end of the first optical fiber coupler 2 is used as signal light, the other path of the output end of the first optical fiber coupler is used as reference light and connected with the input end of the optical fiber circulator 6, the other path of the output end of the optical fiber coupler is used as reference light and connected with the frequency shifter 3, and after the output end of the frequency shifter 3, the output end of the frequency shifter is sequentially connected with the optical fiber delay line 4 and the electric polarization controller 5, and finally the output end of the frequency shifter is connected with the second optical fiber coupler 8; the second port of the fiber circulator 6 in the signal arm (i.e. the measuring arm) is connected with the to-be-measured article (and the to-be-measured event point DUT, design Under Test), and the 3 rd port is connected with the second fiber coupler 8.

And interfere with the beat frequency of the signal light reflected back from the DUT at this point. Since white light is broad spectrum light, its coherence length is extremely short (typically on the order of um to tens of um, which can be approximated as occurring when the two arms are exactly equal in length).
The optical fiber delay line 4, the frequency shifter 3 and the electric polarization controller 5 are controlled by a control and signal acquisition module 9 to operate and work.
The signal processor 10 controls the data acquisition time and the scanning time of the optical fiber delay line to be synchronous on software, and reads the acquired scanning interference data to the upper computer. When the interference structure is built, the total optical path of reflected light of the sample to be detected is controlled to fall in the total optical path range of the reference arm of the delay line scanning.

The two arms are interfered with each other at the current polarized included angle once for each measurement, and the smaller the two polarized included angles are, the larger the probability is (at this time, the maximum value of all interference peaks is selected to be corresponding to the polarized included angle of the two paths of light, and the included angle is 0, namely the same direction, at this time, the real reflection intensity of the point to be measured is closest to the moment, the more the measurement times are, the larger the probability of the same direction is, and the more accurate and stable the intensity measurement is).
Because the position of the event point is unchanged and each delay line scanning and data acquisition are synchronous, theoretically, the width and the center point position of each interference peak are completely the same, and the half-height width and the center position of the peak are averaged to further reduce the system error and improve the precision.
The static interference signal accords with the uniform broadening type of spectral lines, lorentz curve fitting is adopted, the actual interference spectral line condition is met, the highest amplitude value of interference peaks in all sets of results is taken as a peak point A of a fitting curve, and the average value of the median points of all sets of interference peaks is taken as a midpoint x of the fitting signal 0 And width of half height of all peaksAveraging, and fitting the whole beat frequency interference peak by using a Lorentz curve; wherein->。
