Description

Optical fiber gyroscope based on optical fiber ring resonant cavity induction transparency and absorption effect
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fiber optic gyroscopes, in particular to a fiber optic gyroscope based on an optical fiber ring resonator inductive transparency and absorption effect.
Background
In 1976, the first fiber-optic gyroscope in the world was successfully developed by v.vali and r.w. Shorthill of the university of Utah, and once the fiber-optic gyroscope came out, the fiber-optic gyroscope attracted extensive attention worldwide with the advantages of fast start, long life, low power consumption, small volume, and the like, and rapidly developed. The working principle of the fiber-optic gyroscope is based on the Sagnac effect, namely, in the transmission process of light waves, additional phases can be generated due to the rotation of relative inertia space. At present, a fiber ring resonator is used in a conventional resonant fiber gyroscope, when the gyroscope rotates, the resonant frequency of a light wave in the fiber ring resonator changes with the rotation speed, and for two light waves transmitted in opposite directions in the fiber ring resonator, the transmission directions of the two light waves are opposite, the transmission direction of one light wave is the same as the rotation speed direction, and the transmission direction of the other light wave is different from the rotation speed direction, so that the resonant frequencies of the two light waves transmitted in opposite directions are different, and the difference between the two resonant frequencies is in direct proportion to the rotation speed, so that the rotation speed can be measured by detecting the resonant frequency difference value between the two light waves transmitted in opposite directions in the resonant fiber gyroscope.
However, for the traditional resonant fiber optic gyroscope, only one fiber ring resonator is provided, and the resonance spectrum of light waves is wide, so that the precision of the gyroscope is difficult to further improve; on the other hand, two light waves transmitted in opposite directions in the gyroscope are resonated in the same optical fiber ring resonator, and the resonant spectrums of the two light waves are the same and cannot be distinguished, so that the rotation speed direction is difficult to distinguish, and the rotation speed direction can be distinguished only by adding optical devices such as a phase modulator and a complex signal processing system.

The working principle is as follows: the first optical fiber ring 8, the optical fiber coupler 7, and the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler 11 form a first optical fiber ring resonator, and two oppositely transmitted optical waves exist in the first optical fiber ring resonator (in the example of fig. 1, the two optical waves are transmitted in clockwise and counterclockwise directions); the second optical fiber ring 9, the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler 11, and the second optical fiber isolator 13 form a second optical fiber ring resonator, and only the optical wave in a single transmission direction exists in the second optical fiber ring resonator (the transmission direction of the optical wave in the example is counterclockwise); the third optical fiber ring 10, the 3 × 3 optical fiber coupler 11, and the first optical fiber isolator 12 form a third optical fiber ring resonator, and only the optical wave in a single transmission direction exists in the third optical fiber ring resonator (the transmission direction of the optical wave in the example is clockwise).
The output signal of the voltage signal source 1 is a triangular wave voltage signal, the triangular wave voltage signal is loaded to the modulation signal input end of the laser 2 and is used for tuning the frequency of the output light of the laser 2, so that the transmission spectrums of the sensing transparent effect and the sensing absorption effect of the invention can be obtained at the first detector 5 and the second detector 15, the output light of the laser 2 enters the polarization controller 3, the polarization state of the light is selected, the output light of the polarization controller 3 is divided into two beams of light through the first optical fiber beam splitter 4, one beam of light enters the first optical fiber ring resonant cavity through the second optical fiber beam splitter 6 and the optical fiber coupler 7, the light is transmitted anticlockwise in the first optical fiber ring resonant cavity and resonates, the light wave transmitted anticlockwise in the first optical fiber ring resonant cavity passes through the 3 x 3 optical fiber coupler 11 and simultaneously enters the second optical fiber ring resonant cavity and the third optical fiber ring resonant cavity, the light wave entering the third fiber ring resonator counterclockwise is transmitted and resonated in the second fiber ring resonator counterclockwise, but the transmission direction of the light wave entering the third fiber ring resonator counterclockwise is opposite to the conduction direction of the first fiber isolator 12, so the light wave transmitted counterclockwise in the invention can be transmitted and resonated in the first fiber ring resonator and the second fiber ring resonator, and the first fiber ring resonator and the second fiber ring resonator interact with each other through the 3 × 3 fiber coupler 11, and the first fiber ring resonator and the second fiber ring resonator interact with each other and generate an inductive transparent effect by selecting the coupling ratio of the third optical input/output end and the fourth optical input/output end of the 3 × 3 fiber coupler 11, the central frequency of the inductive transparency effect changes along with the rotation speed, when the rotation speed direction is clockwise, the central frequency of the inductive transparency effect moves towards the high-frequency direction, when the rotation speed direction is counterclockwise, the central frequency of the inductive transparency effect moves towards the low-frequency direction, the larger the rotation speed is, the larger the offset of the central frequency of the inductive transparency effect is, the inductive transparency effect transmission spectrum generated by the interaction of the first optical fiber ring resonator and the second optical fiber ring resonator is output by the optical fiber coupler 7, enters the second detector 15 through the third optical fiber beam splitter 14, is detected by the second detector 15, is converted into an electric signal, and then is sent to the signal processing system 16.

Because the first optical fiber ring 8, the second optical fiber ring 9 and the third optical fiber ring 10 are completely the same, when the rotating speed is zero, the central frequencies of the induction transparency effect and the induction absorption effect are the same, when the rotating speed is clockwise, the central frequency of the induction transparency effect moves to the high-frequency direction, and the central frequency of the induction absorption effect moves to the low-frequency direction; when the rotating speed direction is anticlockwise, the central frequency of the induction transparent effect moves towards a low-frequency direction, and the central frequency of the induction absorption effect moves towards a high-frequency direction; the larger the rotating speed is, the larger the offset of the central frequency of the induction transparent effect and the induction absorption effect is; therefore, the rotation speed can be obtained by the difference of the central frequencies of the induction transparency effect and the induction absorption effect, and the rotation speed direction can be obtained by the relative positions of the induction transparency effect and the induction absorption effect.
After receiving the electric signals of the transmission spectrums of the inductive transparency effect and the inductive absorption effect, the signal processing system 16 obtains the central frequencies of the inductive transparency effect and the inductive absorption effect respectively, obtains the rotation speed according to the difference value of the central frequencies of the inductive transparency effect and the inductive absorption effect, obtains the rotation speed direction according to the relative positions of the inductive transparency effect and the inductive absorption effect, and finally, the signal processing system 16 outputs a gyro output signal which comprises the rotation speed and the rotation speed direction.
