The main structure comprises two light sources with different wavelengths, two optical couplers, two Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical devices, two fan-in fan-out modules, a double-core optical fiber ring, two optical detectors and a digital signal acquisition and processing circuit board. Light emitted by the two light sources is respectively guided to two different fiber cores in the double-core fiber ring by the fan-in fan-out module through the optical coupler and the Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device in respective optical paths and finally independently interfered, so that the method is equivalent to realizing two fiber-optic gyroscopes with the same time-varying temperature disturbance, and the environmental noise can be effectively inhibited by synchronously detecting and differentially processing interference signals.

Description

Differential fiber-optic gyroscope based on temperature drift suppression characteristic of double-core fiber
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fiber optic gyroscopes, in particular to a differential fiber optic gyroscope based on the characteristic of inhibiting temperature drift of a double-core fiber.
Background
The fiber-optic gyroscope is one of the most important achievements in the field of fiber-optic sensing, and plays an important role in an inertial navigation system because of the advantages of small volume, light weight, large dynamic range, high sensitivity and the like. The performance of the fiber-optic gyroscope is affected by the surrounding environment such as radiation, magnetic field, vibration, temperature, etc. besides the accuracy of the fiber-optic gyroscope itself, and these factors all cause the degradation of the measurement accuracy.
Temperature effects generally have the greatest effect on the gyroscope. In engineering application, in order to improve the sensitivity of the fiber-optic gyroscope, optical fibers of hundreds of meters to thousands of meters are often wound into a multi-turn coil, however, because of time-varying temperature disturbance of the optical fibers, two beams of counter-propagating light waves can also experience different phase shifts when passing through each section of optical fiber at different times, namely, the Shupe effect. The Shupe effect will produce large bias errors in the fiber optic gyroscope.
The error caused by temperature factor is random and hard to describe, the current solution mainly utilizes two lights with different wavelengths to propagate in a single sensitive coil except for utilizing advanced coil winding technology, adopting heat insulation treatment, performing temperature modeling compensation on a gyroscope and the like, and eliminates the influence of temperature effect through difference when synchronous processing is performed on angular velocity information. However, for light beams with different wavelengths, if the wavelength difference is small, mutual interference may be generated in the optical path, and if the wavelength difference is large, since the optical devices all have specific operating wavelengths, it is difficult to transmit the two lights at the same time in high quality, which finally affects the improvement of the performance of the gyroscope.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to reduce the influence of environmental factors on the performance of the optical fiber gyroscope, the invention provides the differential optical fiber gyroscope based on the characteristic of inhibiting the temperature drift of the double-core optical fiber.
The technical scheme of the invention is as follows: a differential fiber-optic gyroscope based on a characteristic of inhibiting temperature drift of a double-core fiber comprises a first light source, a second light source, a first optical coupler, a second optical coupler, a first Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device, a second Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device, a first fan-in fan-out module, a second fan-in fan-out module, a double-core fiber-optic ring, a first optical detector, a second optical detector and a digital signal acquisition processing circuit board;
two fiber core both ends ports in the double-core optical fiber ring cladding are respectively: the port A and the port C, the port B and the port D are connected with the first fan-in fan-out module, and the port C and the port D are connected with the second fan-in fan-out module; light emitted by a first light source is divided into two beams after passing through a first optical coupler and a first Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device, one beam enters an A port from a first fan-in output module, the other beam enters a C port from a second fan-in fan-out module, returns to the first Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device after passing through a current fiber core in a double-core optical fiber ring and is recombined into one path of light, and interference light information is finally converted into an electric signal by a first optical detector; the second light source passes through a second optical coupler, a second Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device, a first fan-in output module, a second fan-in fan-out module, a port B, a port D and a double-core optical fiber ring on the other light path, and corresponding interference light information is converted into an electric signal by a second optical detector; the electric signals generated by the first optical detector and the second optical detector enter the digital signal acquisition processing circuit board to demodulate rotating speed information corresponding to the two optical paths, on one hand, the rotating speed information is used for gyro output after difference is carried out, on the other hand, corresponding modulation voltages are respectively generated and loaded on the first Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device and the second Y-shaped multifunctional integrated optical device to realize closed-loop feedback and bias modulation.
The first light source and the second light source respectively adopt SLD light sources with the wavelengths of 1530nm and 1560nm and the spectral width of 30 nm. Two fiber cores in the double-core optical fiber ring are symmetrically distributed relative to the central line of the optical fiber, and the length of the optical fiber ring is 3240m, and the diameter of the optical fiber ring is 12.5 cm.
The digital signal acquisition and processing circuit board comprises a double-path analog-to-digital converter, a digital signal processing chip and a double-path digital-to-analog converter, and realizes synchronous processing of double-path interference signals; because the fiber core temperature, the stress characteristics and the like at the same position in the double-core optical fiber can be approximately the same, the two paths of rotating speed information at the same moment are subjected to differential processing, so that the nonreciprocal phase error caused by the environment can be offset, the drift caused by the factors such as the temperature is reduced to the minimum or even completely eliminated, and the environmental adaptability of the optical fiber gyroscope is improved to the great extent.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the invention adopts a double-path structure, and two beams of light with different wavelengths are transmitted in different fiber cores of the same double-core optical fiber ring, so that two optical fiber gyroscope systems are equivalently realized. Because the two fiber cores are basically same in environmental factors, the temperature drift contained in the two interference signals is similar, the temperature effect and other environmental errors can be inhibited by carrying out differential calculation on the two interference signals in the digital signal processor, and the performance of the fiber-optic gyroscope is greatly improved.
