Description

Light intensity stepping frequency modulated full-weak grating array demodulation device and method
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of optical fiber sensing technology, and is especially one kind of light intensity stepped frequency modulated full weak grating array demodulation device and method.
Background
The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not necessarily constitute prior art.
At present, the fiber bragg grating sensing technology has wide application in quasi-distributed measurement of physical quantities such as temperature, strain and the like by virtue of the advantages of electromagnetic interference resistance, high response speed, long-term stable operation in a severe environment and the like. However, most of the existing fiber grating demodulation systems adopt high-reflectivity fiber gratings, and the signal intensity and the sensitivity are high, but the grating multiplexing number of each channel is limited due to the limitation of the spectral bandwidth, and is usually about 10 to 20. In addition, these systems often suffer from poor mechanical reliability of the connection point when connecting or welding optical fibers, especially in long-distance, large-scale monitoring, which is difficult to compare favorably with distributed optical fiber sensing technology.
Along with the development of the large-scale preparation and online writing technology of the weak gratings, the multiplexing capability of the isotactic weak grating array is obviously improved, but the returned useful signals are weak due to the extremely low reflectivity of the weak gratings, so that signal crosstalk and shadow effect are easy to generate, and the accurate demodulation of wavelengths and the accurate positioning of positions become a great challenge. The existing time division multiplexing technology based on pulse light and demodulation technology based on light frequency domain reflection respectively face the problem that pulse width is inversely proportional to spatial resolution and detection distance, and the problem of nonlinear tuning of a light source caused by the increase of frequency scanning range limit the measurement distance, resolution and signal-to-noise ratio of a system. The existing time division multiplexing technology based on pulse light faces the technical problem that the pulse width is inversely proportional to the spatial resolution and the detection distance when the fiber bragg grating sensor is demodulated. In particular, a narrow pulse can increase spatial resolution, but due to the limitation of pulse width, its detection distance decreases correspondingly and the signal-to-noise ratio decreases. At the same time, the narrow pulses require a higher bandwidth photodetector, resulting in increased system noise and increased cost. These factors together limit the application of time division multiplexing techniques in long distance and high accuracy monitoring. Demodulation techniques based on Optical Frequency Domain Reflection (OFDR), while excellent in terms of dynamic range and signal-to-noise ratio, have a measurement distance and spatial resolution that are severely limited by the frequency sweep range of the light source. As the frequency scanning range increases, the problem of nonlinear tuning of the light source becomes more prominent, which causes different beat frequencies of the scattered signal and the reference signal at the same position at different time points, thereby affecting the demodulation accuracy and the signal-to-noise ratio of the system. In addition, complex signal processing algorithms increase the complexity and cost of the system, limiting the practical application effectiveness of OFDR techniques.
Although there have been some patents and studies attempting to optimize fiber grating demodulation systems, such as improving signal processing capability and system integration design by pulsed wavelength scanning lasers and OFDR techniques, the core difficulties in demodulation of weak grating signals have not been effectively solved, particularly while improving the dynamic range and spatial resolution of the system, while maintaining low cost and high real-time performance.

The demodulation method of the full-identical weak grating array demodulation device based on the light intensity stepping frequency modulation comprises the following steps:
Sequentially emitting laser with different wavelengths;
performing linewidth broadening on the laser of each wavelength to form low-coherence laser, performing intensity modulation on the low-coherence laser according to the modulation signals of the step frequency to obtain input lasers corresponding to different modulation signals, and sequentially inputting the input lasers into an isotactic weak fiber grating array;

When the wavelength is tuned from lambda min to lambda min +Mdelta lambda, M+1 groups of time domain response data are obtained, wherein the positions of the weak fiber gratings are the same, but the reflection intensities are different, and the wavelength values of the weak fiber gratings at all positions are obtained through splicing fitting of the reflection intensities of different wavelengths at the same position.
According to the characteristics of a linear motion invariant system, the spatial resolution of the fully-weak grating array demodulation device with light intensity stepping frequency modulation in the embodiment is that the maximum measurable distance is L max=c/2ngroup Deltaf.
The maximum measurement distance is only related to the size of the stepping frequency, the measurement distance can be improved by reducing the size of the stepping frequency, the minimum spatial resolution is only related to the bandwidth size of frequency modulation, the minimum spatial resolution index can be improved by increasing the modulation frequency range, and the realization of the two indexes does not have mutual restriction factors.
The following description will be made with reference to specific embodiments;
The demodulation device comprises a narrow-band wavelength tunable laser 1, an optical fiber phase modulator 2, a broadband noise source 3, an optical fiber intensity modulator 4, a direct digital frequency synthesizer 5, an optical fiber circulator 6, a photoelectric detector 7, an amplitude-frequency phase-frequency response unit 8, a signal processing and control circuit 9 and an industrial control computer 10.
Assuming that the center wavelength of the grating in the isotactic weak fiber grating array is 1550nm, the interval between the fiber gratings is 10cm, the array length is approximately 10km, and the reflectivity of each weak fiber grating is 0.001%.
The narrow-band wavelength tunable laser 1 is connected to the first control signal interface 903 of the signal processing and control circuit 9 through the first electrical signal input interface 102, and repeatedly generates continuous laser light with a wavelength of 1549nm to 1551nm under the control of the signal processing and control circuit 9, the optical power is about 20dBm, the wavelength is changed at intervals of 10pm, and the wavelength is changed 200 times in one tuning period. As shown in fig. 2, a schematic diagram of the wavelength tuning of the output of a narrow band wavelength tunable laser over time is shown.
The optical fiber phase modulator 2 is connected with the first optical output interface 101 of the narrow-band wavelength tunable laser 1 through the first optical input interface 201, and is used for carrying out phase modulation on input continuous laser, the working wavelength range of the optical fiber phase modulator 2 is 1525nm to 1605nm, the output laser wavelength range of the narrow-band wavelength tunable laser 1 is covered, the bandwidth is 10GHz, and the output laser of the tunable laser 1 can be processed;
The optical fiber phase modulator 2 changes the coherence of the continuous laser light by phase modulating the laser light so that the laser light has different phase characteristics during propagation. After phase modulation, the linewidth of the laser is widened, which is helpful to excite each grating in the full weak grating array and reduce the interference of the reflected light signal. By means of phase modulation, the influence of laser coherence on the demodulation precision of the system can be effectively reduced, and the detection sensitivity of the weak grating is improved. The method can also avoid phase noise generated in the optical fiber transmission process, thereby improving the stability of the system.
The broadband noise source 3 is connected with the second electric signal input interface 202 of the optical fiber phase modulator 2 through the first electric signal output interface 201, outputs a broadband random noise signal with the power of about-10 dBm, widens the line width of the input continuous laser to about 1GHz, and ensures that the coherence length of the laser is less than twice of the grating interval, thereby reducing the coherence crosstalk of light among gratings. As shown in fig. 3, a schematic diagram of the line width broadening of laser light by driving the fiber phase modulator via a broadband noise source is shown.
The random weak noise generated by the broadband noise source 3 is applied to the optical fiber phase modulator through the modulation port 301, so that the phase of the laser is caused to randomly change within a certain range, and the linewidth of the laser is widened. The laser with the widened line width has lower coherence, which is beneficial to demodulating the signal of the full weak grating array and can reduce the crosstalk between reflected light.
By adding a broadband noise source, the coherence of laser is further reduced, the detection capability of the system to the weak grating is improved, and the problem of signal crosstalk is effectively solved. Meanwhile, broadband noise can also smooth laser spectrum lines, and demodulation accuracy is improved.
The optical fiber intensity modulator 4 is connected with the second optical output interface 203 of the optical fiber phase modulator 2 through the second optical input interface 401, and is used for modulating the intensity of the input continuous laser, the working wavelength range of the optical fiber intensity modulator 4 is 1525nm to 1605nm, and the frequency range of the input radio frequency modulation signal is 0Hz to 15GHz.
The optical fiber intensity modulator 4 adjusts the light intensity of the laser light to generate corresponding responses at different modulation frequencies. The direct digital frequency synthesizer 5 is responsible for generating a precise step modulation frequency signal to ensure that the reflected light generated by the laser in the fully weak grating array can be stably detected. The time kept by each modulation frequency is matched with the propagation time of the laser in the grating array, so that the effective acquisition of signals is ensured. The modulation mode can accurately control the light intensity and the modulation frequency of the laser, improves the measurement accuracy and the reliability of the system, particularly can keep stable signal response in long-distance optical fiber transmission, and effectively avoids measurement errors caused by mismatching of the modulation frequency.

As shown in fig. 4, a schematic diagram of the laser intensity stepping frequency modulation is shown.
The optical fiber circulator 6 is connected with the third optical output interface 403 of the optical fiber intensity modulator 4 through the third optical input interface 601, continuous laser light modulated by light intensity is used as detection light to be input into the full-weak optical fiber grating array through the first optical bidirectional transmission port 602, then optical signals reflected by the weak optical fiber gratings are transmitted to the fourth optical signal output port 603 through the first optical bidirectional transmission port 602, and the isolation among the ports of the optical fiber circulator 6 is more than 50dB.
The photodetector 7 is connected to the fourth optical signal output port 603 of the optical fiber circulator 6 through the fourth optical input interface 701, converts the received optical signal into an electrical signal, and has a bandwidth of about 20GHz, and optionally amplifies the output photocurrent while detecting the optical signal by using an avalanche photodiode of indium gallium arsenide.

The high sensitivity of the photodetector 7 ensures accurate conversion of the weak reflected signal, and improves the performance of the whole demodulation system.
