Description

Forward Brillouin scattering double-parameter sensing device and method based on optical fiber single-end reflection structure
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber sensing, in particular to a forward Brillouin scattering double-parameter sensing device and method based on an optical fiber single-end reflection structure.
Background
With rapid developments over the past decades, fiber optic sensors based on forward brillouin scattering remain challenging in monitoring the surrounding environment. The simultaneous measurement of temperature and salinity has been attracting attention in many application fields such as marine research, marine environment, marine structure health monitoring, etc. Forward Brillouin scattering, also known as acoustic waveguide Brillouin scattering, has received attention from researchers because of its multiple spectral peaks and multiparameter sensing capability. The monitoring of the forward brillouin spectrum can be used to quantitatively analyze the external environment of the cladding or coating of the optical fiber. The forward brillouin scattering process involves two modes, namely a radial acoustic mode and a torsional-radial acoustic mode. The torsional-radial acoustic mode can cause not only radial resonance but also torsional resonance. These acoustic modes in the fibre interact with the incident optical field, producing forward brillouin scattered light. The radial acoustic mode may be excited by circularly polarized light or linearly polarized light. For the torsional-radial acoustic mode, when the vibration direction of the radial component is along the fiber axis, the induced birefringence direction is also along the fiber axis, and the inherent birefringence axis of the fiber is unchanged, referred to as the 90 °/0 ° vibration mode. When the vibration direction of the radial component is + -45 DEG to the fiber axis, the birefringence axis changes due to the modulation of the additional birefringence, and this deviation from the inherent birefringence axis of the fiber is called 45 DEG/-45 DEG vibration pattern. The intensity of forward brillouin scattered light excited by the torsional-radial acoustic mode is related to the ellipticity of the incident light, which is most scattered when linearly polarized and least scattered when circularly polarized.
In practical application, because forward Brillouin scattering is simultaneously sensitive to two or more parameters such as temperature and salinity, only a single parameter is measured in an environment where a plurality of parameters are changed, sensitivity crosstalk can be caused, and therefore measurement accuracy is reduced. Therefore, in an environment with only two parameters changed, the two parameters are measured simultaneously by utilizing forward Brillouin scattering, so that the problem of cross sensitivity can be avoided, and the simultaneous high-precision measurement of the two parameters can be obtained.
In prior art 1(W.J.Zhang,Y.G.Lu,C.J.He,"Simultaneous measurement of temperature,refractive index,and axial strain based on forward Brillouin scattering in polyimide-coated SMF,"IEEE Sensors J.,23(22),27361-27368(2023).) published by w.j.zhang et al, forward brillouin light excited by radial acoustic modes and its sensing applications are mainly discussed. The forward brillouin scattering excited by the radial acoustic mode has been used for dual parameter measurement, including strain and temperature, temperature and acoustic impedance, temperature and pressure, relative humidity and temperature, to be measured. In fact, the forward brillouin scattering of torsional-radial acoustic mode excitation is also sensitive to changes in the parameters of the surrounding environment of the optical fibre. In addition, compared with the forward Brillouin scattering excited by the radial acoustic mode, the line width of the forward Brillouin scattering excited by the torsion-radial acoustic mode is much smaller, and only a few megahertz can be used for carrying out accurate Lorentz fitting, so that the sensing precision is improved. However, most of the current optical fiber sensing systems based on forward brillouin scattering are based on a Sagnac loop structure, which is designed to obtain forward brillouin scattered light excited by a radial acoustic mode, and the forward brillouin scattered light excited by a torsion-radial acoustic mode is obtained by using the structure, so that the defects of low signal intensity and low signal to noise ratio exist. In the prior art 2(Z.L.Zhang,Y.G.Lu,J.Q.Peng,and Z.Y.Ji,"Simultaneous measurement of temperature and acoustic impedance based on forward Brillouin scattering in LEAF,"Opt.Lett.,Vol.46,no.7,pp.1776-1779,2021) published by z.l.zhang et al, a certain linear relationship between the optical fiber forward brillouin scattering spectrum and the temperature and acoustic impedance is utilized to realize the double-parameter measurement of the temperature and the acoustic impedance, but the used optical fiber needs to be stripped to protect the outer coating of the fiber core and the cladding, so that the optical fiber sensing unit has low mechanical strength and is easy to break.
How to use forward Brillouin scattering light excited by torsion-radial acoustic mode for double-parameter sensing, and overcome the inherent defects of the existing Sagnac ring structure and the coating sensing fiber, is an important challenge for high-precision measurement of double parameters of temperature and salinity.

The optical polarizer is used for filtering out components perpendicular to the polarization plane of the optical polarizer, so that the influence of signals in other polarization directions on beat signals is effectively eliminated. The optical polarization controller phase delays the light (incident light, forward brillouin scattering excited by the radial acoustic mode, and forward brillouin scattering excited by the twist-radial acoustic mode). The relative phase of the transmitted light is changed by adjusting the optical polarization controller, so that the forward Brillouin scattered light of the torsion-radial acoustic mode with high signal-to-noise ratio and the forward Brillouin scattered light of the radial acoustic mode are excited. The function of the optical polariser and the optical polarisation controller is to obtain high signal to noise ratio forward brillouin scattered light for torsional-radial acoustic mode excitation while suppressing as much as possible the forward brillouin scattered light for radial acoustic mode excitation.
