According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 4 has described a kind of embodiment of square-wave frequency modulation.Upper and lower, right three parts that Fig. 4 can be divided into.The sinogram longitudinal axis of part represents the later light intensity of two bundle polarized light interferences on Fig. 4, and transverse axis represents that two bundle cross polarization light phases are poor.Part is that two bundle cross polarization light are carried out ± modulated square wave of pi/2 bias modulation under Fig. 4, and its vertical pivot is the time, and transverse axis represents the square wave amplitude, and just in time can be between two bundle cross polarization light during the square wave which amplitude modulation introducing ± pi/2 bias modulation phase differential.Fig. 4 right half is that two bundle polarized light interference results are through the output waveform after the square-wave frequency modulation, wherein partially left part is waveform in measured physical quantity=0 o'clock, the side that takes over partly is to be not equal to 0 o'clock waveform at measured physical quantity, when the flat part in bottom represents to be in the square wave which amplitude modulation, spike then is that two bundle polarized light interference results in square wave peak-peak amplitude jump form through peaks.
The interference light intensity information of mutual inductor is faraday's phase shift φ FCosine function, namely
I d=I 0(1+cosφ F)
In the following formula, I 0The light intensity of two bundle relative photo, φ F=4NVI be two bunch polarized lights in faraday's phase shift of sensing head place sensitivity, wherein N is that sensor fibre twines the number of turns, V is that sensor fibre Verdet constant, I are size of current to be measured.
As shown in Figure 4, at first driving modulation pull-in frequency by optical phase modulator by square wave at the optical phase modulator place is the square wave phase bias modulation (wherein τ is that two bunch polarized lights are formed into the mistiming that finally interferes) of 1/ (2 τ), stack ± pi/2 phase is poor between two bunch polarized lights, improves the sensitivity of mutual inductor system; By introducing the square wave bias modulation, on frequency domain, output signal spectrum is moved to high frequency by low frequency range simultaneously, avoid the 1/f noise of low frequency range, reduced the impact of low-frequency noise.At this moment interfere and be output as
I d = I 0 ( 1 + cos ( φ F ± π 2 ) ) = I 0 ( 1 + ‾ sin φ F )
By bias modulation, be superimposed upon direct current I interfering output to be modulated into one 0On amplitude be I 0Sin φ FSquare-wave signal, the square wave amplitude has reflected faraday's phase shift size.In order further to reduce system's output nonlinear error and to increase range of dynamic measurement, introduce a feedback compensation phase shift φ with faraday phase shift equal and opposite in direction, opposite direction by optical phase modulator by the modulation of staircase waveform feedback at the optical phase modulator place R, form closed-loop control system.At this moment, the interference of two-beam is output as
I d = I 0 ( 1 + ‾ sin ( φ F + φ R ) )
Because φ F+ φ R≈ 0, so this moment, the mutual inductor system always worked in the best zero phase near zone of the linearity, it is the highest therefore to measure sensitivity; Owing to realize the closed loop detection, also enlarged the measurement range of system simultaneously.At this moment the correlation demodulation result of system is (semiperiod is subtracted each other the result before and after the periodic signal that following formula represents):
Δ=n·I 0·sin(φ FR)≈n·I 0·(φ FR)
Wherein, Δ is the intermediate quantity that signal demodulation link occurs, and it represents demodulation result, is a small quantity, forms digital staircase waveform bench height by the integration to this small quantity.It results from the signal demodulation unit in the major loop DLC (digital logic circuit), outputs to integral unit and 2 π voltage control units.
According to one embodiment of present invention, Fig. 5 has provided the embodiment of staircase waveform feedback phase relation.As shown in Figure 5, Fig. 5 is divided into up and down two parts.Wherein in the first half of Fig. 5, the longitudinal axis is phase differential, and transverse axis is the time.Solid line staircase waveform wherein represents t feedback staircase waveform constantly, and the dotted line staircase waveform represents t+ τ feedback staircase waveform constantly, the size of the bench height actual feedback amount of staircase waveform.The latter half of Fig. 5 is corresponding with the first half, is subtracted each other by the solid line of the first half and dotted line to obtain, and its is actual, and what characterize is the bench height of staircase waveform.At periodic recessed portion, sign be the height value of staircase waveform equally, just herein staircase waveform phase-accumulated formation resets to 2 π, so non-highly low 2 π in the place that resets of its aspect ratio.
Adopt the modulation of staircase waveform feedback to produce the poor φ of feedback phase in the present embodiment RThe described demodulation result of following formula is made cumulative integration, form the bench height So (So is intermediate quantity, does not indicate) of digital staircase waveform in Fig. 5.So forms analogue step ripple rear drive optical phase modulator through D/A conversion unit on the one hand, differs φ to introduce compensation between two-beam R, So numeral as mutual inductor after further filtering is processed is exported simultaneously, the size and Orientation of reflection mutual inductor input current.
If the analogue step ripple that forms through digital-to-analog conversion is Δ V R(t)=V R(t)-V R(t-τ), its codomain be (∞ ,+∞), the additional phase shift that then produces between two bunch polarized lights is:
φ R=K fpV R(t)-K fpV R(t-τ)
=K fp(V R(t)-V R(t-τ))
=K fpΔV R(t)
τ is the transit time of light beam in fibre delay line in the following formula, and Kfp is the phase-modulator index of modulation.The following formula explanation, the phase differential that the staircase waveform modulation produces is directly proportional with the staircase waveform bench height.FW among Fig. 5 (solid line) expression t feedback staircase waveform constantly, BW (dotted line) expression t+ τ feedback staircase waveform constantly; V R(t) absolute altitude of expression analogue step ripple step.
But obviously, the codomain scope (∞ ,+∞) the upper staircase waveform that constantly rises is impossible realize.Owing to interfere output signal take 2 π as the cycle, so in this closed loop policy, adopting shape codomain scope as shown in Figure 5 be that the staircase waveform of (0,2 π) replaces codomain for (∞ ,+∞) staircase waveform is namely worked as staircase waveform phase modulation K FpV R(t)=automatically reset during 2 π.
The closed signal that realizes optical fiber current mutual inductor by above method detects.But in mutual inductor long-term work process, the half-wave voltage of optical phase modulator can be drifted about, i.e. K FpV R(t) ≠ 2 at this moment π just needs the automatic corrective loop of design 2 π resetting voltages, as shown in Figure 2.
At first need to extract the error signal of 2 π resetting voltage corrective loops, minute K FpV R(t)>2 π, K FpV R(t)<2 π, K FpV R(t)=2 three kinds of situations of π.Work as K FpV R(t) ≠ during 2 π, the photo-detector output power can produce a transient, this transient resets at staircase waveform and constantly can obtain according to the System Dependent demodulation result, this demodulation result is as the 2nd closed loop, it is the two the input error signal of signal circuit of major loop DLC (digital logic circuit) and 2 π voltage control units among Fig. 2, then use by digital integrator it is processed, again the digital signal behind the integration is transformed into simulating signal by digital-to-analogue, remove to control the gain of D/A conversion unit or the digital to analog converter reference voltage that mutual inductor major loop DLC (digital logic circuit) produces staircase waveform, thereby 2 π resetting voltage corrective loops have been formed, 2 π resetting voltages are controlled in real time, make it can produce all the time accurately 2 π phase places, thereby guarantee the no-load voltage ratio performance of mutual inductor.
According to an aspect of the present invention, the closed signal processing unit can be realized by technology such as FPGA, DSP.Said units can be designed to integrated device or independent module according to demand in the situation that function is determined, be designed in the situation of integrated device, and the device of light path, circuit all is easy to modularization and integrated, and reciprocity is good, is convenient to Networking Design.
It will be understood by those of skill in the art that in the scope and equivalency range thereof of claims, according to designing requirement and other factors, various modifications, merging, subitem merging and variation can occur.
