Consult shown in Fig. 2, the principle of the invention is as follows:
The light ω that Wavelength tunable laser 1 produces 0enter phase-modulator 3 and carry out phase-modulation, when system is just started working, modulation signal is system noise, and it has very wide frequency content, and the signal thus after modulation has a lot of sideband.Signal after modulation enters π phase shift bragg grating 5 by optical circulator 4, as one of them sideband ω 0ewill by filtering when being arranged in the very narrow transmission window of π phase shift bragg grating 5 reflectance spectrum, corresponding sideband ω 0+ ω ephotodetector 6 and light carrier ω is entered by optical circulator 4 0it is ω that beat frequency produces frequency emicrowave.Other sidebands enter photodetector 6, because its upper side band is contrary with the beat signal phase place of corresponding lower sideband and carrier wave with the beat signal of carrier wave, thus cancels out each other, only produce direct current signal.The frequency that beat frequency produces is ω emicrowave through microwave beam splitter 7, a part is input in frequency spectrograph 9, a part by being input to phase-modulator 3 after microwave power amplifier 8, continue that light is inputted to Wavelength tunable laser 1 and modulate, formed electro-optical feedback loop.And so forth, frequency is ω emicrowave will become large gradually by little, set up self-sustained oscillation and finally reach stable, namely constituting optical-electronic oscillator structure.When external environment causes π phase shift bragg grating 5 that strain occurs, its transmission window also will produce corresponding mobile, the wavelength of area of light moves the microwave signal frequency finally converting electrical domain to and moves, thus achieves the accurate measurement to π phase shift optical fiber Bragg grating 5 dependent variable.
