Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of optical fiber sensing, and particularly relates to a wavelength demodulation method based on high-sensitivity edge filtering.

Background

The fiber grating is an important device for fiber sensing due to the advantages of specific fiber internal sensitivity, wavelength coding, easiness in multiplexing, networking and the like. Wavelength demodulation of the grating is one of the key technologies for grating sensing. The existing grating wavelength demodulation technology includes a spectrum method, a wavelength scanning method and a traditional edge filtering method.

The wavelength scanning method is classified into a broad spectrum light pass tunable filter scanning method and a scanning laser method. Tunable filter demodulation is severely limited by the response speed of the mechanical tuning mechanism in the filter, which is slow and expensive.

In the conventional scanning wavelength demodulation method, if a single sensor is used, only one path of wide-spectrum light emitted by a scanning laser reaches the sensing grating, the reflected light of the wide-spectrum light reaches a narrow-band light centered on the central wavelength of the sensing grating, and the other path of wide-spectrum light passes through an etalon and is received by a photoelectric detector. Only when the center wavelength of the reflected light coincides with the center wavelength of the FFP will the photodetector detect a pulse signal, and the same rational etalon detect a train of pulses that represent the peaks of the etalon transmission peaks. The time of the maximum light intensity of the sensing grating detected by the photoelectric detector is recorded, the time is compared with each peak time of a series of pulses of the etalon (the etalon mainly has the function of correcting the wavelength value), the central wavelength value of the sensing grating can be calculated through a peak demodulation algorithm, and wavelength demodulation is realized. In the case of multiple sensors, the light reflected from the sensors is a comb-like pulse spectrum having multiple peaks, and multiple center wavelength values of the multiple sensors can be calculated at a time by demodulating the peak wavelengths with the respective peak wavelengths of the etalon. However, the sensors are independent and incoherent, and the sensors can be used to measure different quantities, such as temperature sensors, pressure sensors, etc. However, in either a single sensor or a plurality of sensors, the wavelength demodulated by the scanning wavelength demodulation method is not accurate, and the mode hopping of the laser causes a discontinuity in wavelength scanning, so that the output laser is wavelength-hopped, which complicates laser control, signal processing, and speed. The spectrum method generally adopts a CCD detection module, and because the inside adopts a diffraction grating and the back end of the diffraction grating receives signals by a linear array CCD, the spectrum method is not only expensive, but also precise in structure and difficult to adapt to vibration and high-temperature occasions.

The edge filtering demodulation technology is simple in structure, high in reliability and high in speed, the traditional edge filtering is formed by a filter with a single-peak spectrum and a traditional single-peak Bragg grating, the traditional edge filtering is limited by the side band gradient of the grating and the gradient of the edge of the transmission spectrum of the filter, the single-peak edge is steep, the width is narrow, the strength is low, the sensitivity is limited, high-sensitivity occasions such as vibration and sound waves are difficult to meet, and the practicability is not enough.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

As shown in fig. 1, the wavelength demodulation method of fiber grating edge add-on filtering according to embodiment 1 of the present invention includes the following steps:

s1, wide spectrum light emitted by the broadband light source is incident to the fiber grating, the fiber grating is an inclined fiber grating comprising a plurality of equally spaced peaks, and the reflected light of the fiber grating is multi-peak comb-shaped light;

s2, passing the multi-peak comb light reflected by the fiber bragg grating through a comb filter, wherein the center wavelength of the reflection spectrum peak of each fiber bragg grating is positioned on the oblique side of the transmission spectrum comb peak of each comb filter, an overlapping part is formed, and the comb filter is used for carrying out edge filtering on each peak of the multi-peak comb light;

s4, determining whether to perform continuous demodulation of the wavelength, if yes, repeating steps S2 and S3 to perform continuous demodulation of the wavelength.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the peak pitches of the transmission spectrum of the comb filter and the reflection spectrum of the fiber grating are set to be equal (theoretically unequal, the most essential requirement is that the peaks of the tilted grating and the comb filter can be matched, if the pitches are unequal, only the two peaks are arranged at the same pitch, that is, if the pitches of the gratings are unequal, the pitches of the comb filter are also arranged at the same unequal pitches, which can also be realized). The present invention preferably performs multiple reflection peak simultaneous edge filtering on the reflected light of the tilted grating by using a comb filter having a comb peak interval that is the same as the tilted grating peak interval.

Further, in the transmission spectrum of the comb filter, each comb peak spectrum is a gaussian spectrum.

Further, in the reflection spectrum of the fiber grating, each reflection peak is a gaussian spectrum.

Further, the center wavelength of the reflection spectrum peak of the fiber-tilted grating is located on the hypotenuse of the comb peak of the transmission spectrum of the comb filter, and the two peaks have an overlapping portion. The intersection point of the bevel edges of the two peaks is close to the middle point of the bevel edge as much as possible, so that the demodulation dynamic range is large and the linearity is good.

As shown in fig. 2, a wavelength demodulation method of fiber grating edge overlap filtering according to another embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps:

s101, wide-spectrum light emitted by a broadband light source enters a fiber grating;

s102, dividing the multi-peak comb light reflected by the fiber bragg grating into two paths, wherein one path is probe light, and the other path is reference light;

s103, the detection light passes through a comb filter, and the transmission light of the detection light is subjected to photoelectric conversion to generate a first electric signal;

s104, generating a second electric signal after the reference light is subjected to photoelectric conversion;

s105, performing analog-to-digital conversion on the first electric signal to obtain the optical power of the detection light, and calculating the change rate of the optical power of the detection light; the change rate is the ratio of the current sampling value to the initial sampling value of the detection light path;

s106, performing analog-to-digital conversion on the second electric signal to obtain the optical power of the reference light, and calculating the change rate of the optical power of the reference light, wherein the change rate is the ratio of the current sampling value to the initial sampling value of the reference light path;

s107, subtracting the change rate of the optical power of the reference light from the change rate of the optical power of the detection light to obtain a corrected optical power value of the detection light;

s108, fitting the reflection spectrum function of the fiber grating and the transmission spectrum function of the comb filter, and calculating the wavelength variation of the fiber grating by combining the corrected optical power value of the detection light;

s109, repeating the steps S105-S108 to continuously demodulate the wavelength.

In step S108, each peak function of the tilted grating and the comb filter is a gaussian function, and a plurality of peaks are the superposition of the gaussian functions and are directly fitted by the gaussian functions. The correction optical power is obtained by subtracting the change rate of the optical power of the second photodetector from the change rate of the optical power of the first photodetector, and since the change rate of the optical power of the second photodetector is the change of the light source itself and the optical power of the first photodetector is the sum of the change of the light source power added to the change of the sensor itself, the correction optical power may be obtained by directly subtracting the change rates thereof.

The multi-peak comb light is subjected to edge filtering by overlapping a plurality of peaks of the comb filter with edge parts of a plurality of peaks of the fiber grating; the comb filter can perform simultaneous edge filtering on a plurality of reflection peaks of the reflected light of the fiber bragg grating, so that the sensitivity of the system is improved on the premise of not improving the complexity and the cost of the system, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the system is enhanced.
