Embodiment
Do further to specify below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
The principle schematic of the laser phase method distance measuring equipment of the utility model is as shown in Figure 1.The infrared laser that laser instrument 1 sends directly gets into electrooptic modulator 3 through optical fiber 2; The signal of 3 L-bands (1.485GHz, 1.49925GHz, 1.5GHz) is sent in driver unit 4 timesharing of radio-frequency signal generator, is loaded into electrooptic modulator 3 after this signal is amplified to enough power and filtering.
Light signal to after electrooptic modulator 3 modulation is divided into two-way through optical fiber splitter 5, and bringing out what penetrate by A a road is outer light path, and bringing out what penetrate by B a road is interior light path.The light signal of interior light path is (PIN+TIA) 9 from the fiber optic conduction to the photodetector directly.The optical signals fiber optic conduction of outer light path is to the along of collimation lens set 6; Directive is arranged on the catoptron 7 at object under test place behind collimation lens set 6 collimations; By getting back to receiving objective group 8 after 7 reflections of this catoptron, receiving objective group 8 focuses on the laggard photodetector (APD+TIA) 10 of going into the light signal of outer light path.Detector 9 and 10 light signals with inside and outside light path are separately converted to electric signal and amplify.
The master that electrooptic modulator is modulated shakes 4 according to indirect modulation frequency mode assigned frequency, and the frequency of the winner is shaken three L-bands that timesharing sends all changes in very little scope, is convenient to same circuit filtering of following adopted and amplification.Three indirect modulation frequencies that timesharing is sent can guarantee the measurement range of 200m, can guarantee the Measurement Resolution of 0.1mm again.
The synoptic diagram of radio-frequency signal generator is as shown in Figure 2, the master among Fig. 1 shake 4 with Fig. 3 in local oscillator 20 all adopt the structure of Fig. 2.Radio-frequency signal generator comprises controller 15, fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop 13, power supply 14, crystal oscillator 12, low noise amplifier 16, BPF. 17.Controller 15 (preferentially select for use and adopt single chip computer AT 89LS52) writes size and the frequency conversion time of control word with controlled frequency to fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop 13 (preferentially selecting ADF4350 for use); This controller 15 is frequency conversion time of the local oscillator in the control chart 3 simultaneously also, make the winner shake 4 with local oscillator 20 synchronous frequency conversions.The power supply 14 of ultra-low noise (preferentially selecting ADP150 for use) is to fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop 13 power supplies, and crystal oscillator 12 employing temperature compensating crystal oscillator or the constant-temperature crystal oscillators as reference frequency source help to improve frequency stability.The short-term stability of radiofrequency signal is guaranteed by the fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop circuit that mainly long-term stability is mainly guaranteed by temperature compensating crystal oscillator or constant-temperature crystal oscillator.The signal of fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop 13 outputs is amplified by low noise amplifier 16 (preferentially selecting HMC719 for use), and is last by on the integrated electro-optic modulator 3 that is loaded into after BPF. 17 filtering among Fig. 1.
Early stage laser phase method stadimeter adopts the method for frequency multiplication to a plurality of crystal oscillators, frequency division, mixing to produce modulation signal, this method complex structure, and debug difficulties is seldom used now.The method that present laser phase method stadimeter produces modulating frequency has Direct Digital synthetic method (DDS) and indirect synthesis method of the frequency (PLL).Under the present technology, the frequency of the signal that the DDS method produces is no more than 1GHz, and PLL also can be referred to as the integral frequency divisioil phaselocked loop, though this method can produce very high-frequency signal, its frequency resolution is lower, and the frequency hopping time is long.The fractional frequency-division phase-locked loop that occurs in recent years is applied in the Laser Range Finding Based on Phase, can guarantees higher frequency stability and frequency resolution, the short frequency hopping time is arranged again, and it is simple in structure, be convenient to debugging.
The ASH of said photodetection and signal processing module partly comprises two wave filters 18 and 19, local oscillator 20 and binary channels frequency mixer 21.The synoptic diagram of signal Processing is as shown in Figure 3 after the photodetection; The radiofrequency signal after binary channels frequency mixer 21 is surveyed inside and outside light path and the signal mixing (down coversion) of local oscillator 20; Just become low frequency signal to the corresponding high-frequency signal of inside and outside light path through mixing; Calculate the phase differential of these low frequency signals, finally calculate testing distance according to phasometer.Specifically, the electric signal of photodetector 9 outputs that interior light path is corresponding obtains purer radiofrequency signal C by the unnecessary harmonic components of wave filter 18 filterings.The electric signal of photodetector 10 outputs that outer light path is corresponding obtains purer radiofrequency signal D by wave filter 19 filtering.Because the signal that 1.485GHz, 1.49925GHz, 1.5GHz are sent in the main timesharing of shaking of controller 15 control is modulated integrated electrooptic modulator, so signal C, also saltus step between these three frequencies synchronously of D, just phase differential is different.Controller 15 is also controlled the radiofrequency signal E that three frequencies are sent in local oscillator 20 timesharing, and three frequencies of signal E are respectively than the low same fixed value of three frequencies of the main signal that shakes, and with signal C, D synchronising frequency hopping.Signal C, D and signal E be down coversion in binary channels frequency mixer 21 (preferentially selecting ADL5802 for use); The frequency identical (like 1MHz) of different three pairs of low frequency signals constantly after the down coversion; All equal the difference of frequency of frequency and the signal E of signal C, D, but the phase differential of every pair of signal is different.Behind double channel A/every pair of signal of D device 22 synchronous acquisition, calculate the phase differential of every pair of low frequency signal by phase difference calculating device 23, the phase differential of inside and outside light path just just can calculate testing distance according to the phase differential of these 3 pairs of signals.
The environmental change meeting causes the variation of circuit parameter, thereby produces the additional phase error of inside and outside light path respective signal.For reducing this instantaneous additional phase error, on the signal Processing of inside and outside light path, adopt the circuit arrangement mode of equity, down coversion device and A/D sampler all adopt the binary channels device.Can draw light path and the medium-term and long-term constant fixing additional phase error of circuit through demarcating, it is eliminated as definite value property systematic error in routine processes.
