Abstract

A broad-spectrum light source-based wind measurement lidar, wherein optical switches (24, 25) are used for gating so that emitted laser light and an atmospheric echo signal share one filter (21), thereby achieving the direct detection of the broad-spectrum light source-based wind measurement lidar; a frequency shifter (31) is used to shift the frequency of the emitted laser light onto the edge of the filter (21); and when the Doppler frequency shift of the atmospheric echo signal occurs, the intensity of a transmitted signal and a reflected signal of the atmospheric echo signal traversing the filter (21) will change, wherein one increases and one decreases, and the atmospheric wind speed is extracted by means of intensity change information. Since the emitted laser light and the atmospheric echo signal traverse the filter (21) within a time in the order of milliseconds or even microseconds, the present wind measurement lidar has the following advantages: first, the wind measurement lidar is not sensitive to the frequency drift of the laser and the filter (21); secondly, there is no need to use a narrow line width single-frequency laser, and the broad-spectrum light source may increase exit laser power and reduce the cost of the laser; and finally, no reference laser is needed, which simplifies the optical path.

大气风速遥感中,测风激光雷达由于具有高精度、高时空分辨率等特点,已广泛应用于大气风廓线探测、风切变预警、飞机尾流探测、风能发电、航空航天和军事等领域。In the remote sensing of atmospheric wind speed, the wind lidar has been widely used in atmospheric wind profile detection, wind shear early warning, aircraft wake detection, wind power generation, aerospace, military and other fields due to its high precision and high temporal and spatial resolution. .
测风激光雷达可分为直接探测和相干探测两类。目前,这两种机制的测风激光雷达的光源均采用要求苛刻的窄线宽的激光器。相干激光雷达通过采用窄线宽提高相干长度,从而提高相干效率,光谱越宽,相干效率越差。而在直接探测测风激光雷达中,通过采用窄线宽激光锁定在滤波器的陡峭边沿上,微弱的多普勒频移将引起大的透过强度的变化,从而提取风速信息,激光光谱越窄探测灵敏度越高。在实际应用中,由于激光器和滤波器之间的漂移,需要采用参考光,将激光器频率锁定在滤波器上。这就带来了以下几个问题,首先,当周围温度和压强变化大时,将引起激光器和滤波器大的频率漂移,这一方面增大了锁定的难度,也对系统的稳定性提出了更好的要求,另外一方面,引入了系统误差;其次,在光纤激光器中,线宽越窄,受激布里渊散射效应越强,从而限制了激光器的输出功率,增大了激光器的成本。Wind lidar can be divided into direct detection and coherent detection. At present, the light sources of the wind lidars of these two mechanisms use demanding narrow linewidth lasers. Coherent lidar uses a narrow line width to increase the coherence length, thereby improving the coherence efficiency. The wider the spectrum, the worse the coherence efficiency. In the direct detection wind lidar, by using a narrow linewidth laser to lock on the steep edge of the filter, the weak Doppler frequency shift will cause a large change in the transmission intensity, so as to extract the wind speed information. The narrower detection sensitivity is higher. In practical applications, due to the drift between the laser and the filter, a reference light needs to be used to lock the laser frequency on the filter. This brings about the following problems. First of all, when the surrounding temperature and pressure change greatly, it will cause a large frequency drift of the laser and filter, which increases the difficulty of locking and also raises the stability of the system. Better requirements, on the other hand, introduce systematic errors; secondly, in fiber lasers, the narrower the line width, the stronger the stimulated Brillouin scattering effect, which limits the output power of the laser and increases the cost of the laser .

请参见图3所示,由于发射激光和回波信号共用一个滤波器,法布里-帕罗干涉仪(FPI)光谱和激光光谱具有同一线型,由于法布里-帕罗干涉仪的线型为洛伦兹线型,两个洛伦兹函数的卷积仍为洛伦兹线型,宽度为两个洛伦兹函数宽度之和。因此大气回波信号和法布里-帕罗干涉仪的卷积仍为洛伦兹线型,但是宽度增大了一倍,其大气回波信号经法布里-帕罗干涉仪的透射谱和反射谱如图3(b)所示。通过采用激光频移器(AOM)对发射激光频率进行频移,例如将激光频率锁定在了图3(b)所示曲线的半高处。As shown in Figure 3, since the emitted laser and echo signal share a filter, the Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) spectrum and the laser spectrum have the same linear shape. The type is the Lorentz line, the convolution of the two Lorentz functions is still the Lorentz line, and the width is the sum of the widths of the two Lorentz functions. Therefore, the convolution of the atmospheric echo signal and the Fabry-Perot interferometer is still a Lorentz line, but the width is doubled. The atmospheric echo signal is transmitted through the transmission spectrum of the Fabry-Perot interferometer. And the reflection spectrum is shown in Figure 3(b). By using a laser frequency shifter (AOM) to frequency shift the emitted laser frequency, for example, the laser frequency is locked at the half height of the curve shown in Figure 3(b).
本公开的核心模块为滤波模块20,通过第一光开关24和第二光开关25选通的方式,从而实现发射激光和大气回波信号经过同一滤波器21,从而实现宽谱光源。为了提取大气回波信号的频移,实现大气风场的探测,发射激光经激光频移器31频移至滤波器21的边缘,当回波信号的频率发生改变时,将引起大气回波信号经滤波器21上的透 射信号和反射信号强度发生变化,一个增强,另外一个降低,大气风速信息通过这个强度信息进行提取。The core module of the present disclosure is the filter module 20. The first optical switch 24 and the second optical switch 25 are gated to realize that the emitted laser and the atmospheric echo signal pass through the same filter 21, thereby realizing a broad-spectrum light source. In order to extract the frequency shift of the atmospheric echo signal and realize the detection of the atmospheric wind field, the emitted laser is frequency shifted to the edge of the filter 21 by the laser frequency shifter 31. When the frequency of the echo signal changes, it will cause the atmospheric echo signal The intensity of the transmitted signal and the reflected signal on the filter 21 changes, one increases, the other decreases, and atmospheric wind speed information is extracted through this intensity information.
本发明公开了一种基于宽谱光源的直接探测测风激光雷达。该发明采用两个光开关选通的方式,使发射激光和大气回波信号共用一个滤波器,实现基于宽谱光源的直接探测测风激光雷达。该发明为提高测风的灵敏度,提出采用频移器将发射激光频率移至滤波器的边缘上。当大气回波信号发射多普勒频移时,将引起大气回波信号经滤波器上的透射信号和反射信号强度发生变化,一个增强,另外一个降低,大气风速信息通过这个强度变化信息提取。由于发射激光和大气回波信号在毫秒甚至微秒量级的时间内通过滤波器,因此本发明具有如下优势,首先,该直接探测测风激光雷达对激光器和滤波器的频率漂移不敏感;其次,不需采用窄线宽单频激光器,宽谱光源可提高发射激光功率,降低激光器成本;最后,不需要参考激光,简化了光路。The invention discloses a direct detection wind measurement lidar based on a wide-spectrum light source. The invention adopts the way of two optical switches to make the emission laser and the atmospheric echo signal share a filter, and realizes the direct detection wind lidar based on the broad-spectrum light source. In order to improve the sensitivity of wind measurement, the invention proposes to use a frequency shifter to move the emitted laser frequency to the edge of the filter. When the atmospheric echo signal emits Doppler frequency shift, it will cause the atmospheric echo signal to change the intensity of the transmitted signal and the reflected signal on the filter, one increases and the other decreases. The atmospheric wind speed information is extracted by this intensity change information. Since the emitted laser and atmospheric echo signals pass through the filter within milliseconds or even microseconds, the present invention has the following advantages. First, the direct detection wind lidar is not sensitive to the frequency drift of the laser and the filter; , There is no need to use a narrow linewidth single-frequency laser, a wide-spectrum light source can increase the emitted laser power and reduce the cost of the laser; finally, no reference laser is needed, which simplifies the optical path.

(2)本公开提出发射激光和大气回波信号共用一个滤波器的方案,通过激光频移器将发射激光锁定在法布里-帕罗干涉仪和大气回波信号卷积后光谱的半高处,由于发射激光和大气回波信号在微秒量级的时间内通过法布里-帕罗干涉仪,在这个时间尺度内法布里-帕罗干涉仪漂移量可忽略不计,降低了直接探测测风激光雷达对法布里-帕罗干涉仪稳定性的要求。(2) The present disclosure proposes a scheme in which the emission laser and the atmospheric echo signal share a filter, and the emission laser is locked at the half height of the spectrum after convolution of the Fabry-Perot interferometer and the atmospheric echo signal through a laser frequency shifter. Because the emitted laser and atmospheric echo signals pass through the Fabry-Perot interferometer in microseconds, the drift of the Fabry-Perot interferometer is negligible in this time scale, which reduces the directivity. Detect the requirements of the wind lidar for the stability of the Fabry-Perot interferometer.
(3)本公开提出发射激光和大气回波信号共用一个滤波器的方案,由于发射激光相对于法布里-帕罗干涉仪的位置可通过激光频移器控制,因此,这省去了传统直接探测测风激光雷达的参考光,简化了光路。(3) The present disclosure proposes a solution for the emission of laser and atmospheric echo signals to share a filter. Since the position of the emission laser relative to the Fabry-Perot interferometer can be controlled by a laser frequency shifter, this eliminates the need for traditional Directly detect the reference light of the wind lidar, simplifying the optical path.
