Description

Method and system for measuring parameters of optical fiber depolarizer in optical fiber sensitive loop of depolarized optical fiber gyroscope
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of fiber optic gyroscopes, and particularly relates to a method, a system and equipment for measuring parameters of a fiber depolarizer in a depolarized fiber optic gyroscope fiber sensitive loop.
Background
The depolarization type fiber optic gyroscope is an interference type fiber optic gyroscope adopting a single-mode fiber optic ring, has the characteristics of high sensitivity, low cost and low magnetic field sensitivity, and has stronger application value and competitiveness in the field of high-precision fiber optic gyroscopes with obvious fiber optic ring cost ratio. The optical fiber depolarizer is a key optical device of a depolarizing optical fiber gyroscope, and can depolarize wide-spectrum light entering a single-mode optical fiber ring, improve the stability of interference signals, and inhibit most of noise and drift caused by unstable polarization state, so that the quality of the optical fiber depolarizer determines the performance of the depolarizing optical fiber gyroscope. The optical fiber depolarizer is generally formed by welding two polarization maintaining optical fibers with the length ratio of 1 to 2 at an angle of 45 degrees, in order to ensure the depolarization effect, the length of the shorter polarization maintaining optical fiber needs to be far longer than that of the optical fiber corresponding to the light source decoherence, and meanwhile, the error of the 45-degree welding angle needs to be as small as possible. The parameters of the length of the polarization maintaining optical fiber and the welding angle between the two polarization maintaining optical fibers determine the quality of the optical fiber depolarizer, so that it is very important to accurately evaluate the parameters of the optical fiber depolarizer.
The fiber-optic sensitive loop of the depolarization fiber-optic gyroscope consists of a Y waveguide modulator chip, two polarization-maintaining tail fibers, two polarization-maintaining fibers with set lengths and a single-mode fiber loop, wherein the two polarization-maintaining tail fibers and the two polarization-maintaining fibers are respectively welded, and the included angle of a polarization main shaft between the polarization-maintaining tail fibers and the polarization-maintaining fibers at the welding point is required to be 45 degrees, so that two fiber-optic depolarizers consisting of four sections of polarization-maintaining fibers are formed, and the length ratio of the four sections of polarization-maintaining fibers should satisfy the relationship of 1. The output light of the polarization-maintaining tail fiber of the Y waveguide modulator chip is linearly polarized light, the linearly polarized light enters the second section of polarization-maintaining fiber at an angle of 45 degrees to realize uniform light splitting, the polarization randomization and decoherence effects are mainly ensured by the length of the second section of polarization-maintaining fiber, and therefore the included angle of the polarization main shafts of the fusion point of the polarization-maintaining fiber in the depolarizer and the length of the second section of polarization-maintaining fiber are important parameters. To date, the optical fiber depolarizer used in the depolarizing optical fiber gyroscope generally needs to be manufactured separately and then connected into the optical fiber loop. Due to the problems of welding angle error and uncertain optical fiber interception and cutting length in the access process, parameters of the optical fiber depolarizer are greatly changed after an optical fiber loop is accessed, and the conventional method cannot realize the measurement of the parameters of the optical fiber depolarizer under the condition, so that the performance of the depolarized optical fiber gyroscope has numerous uncertain factors.
Research shows that the output spectrum of the fiber-optic sensitive loop of the depolarization fiber-optic gyroscope is in an interference comb-shaped modulation spectrum shape and is mainly formed by polarization interference introduced by a second section of polarization-maintaining fiber in a fiber-optic depolarizer. Based on the theory, the invention provides an online measurement method for the length of a second section of polarization maintaining optical fiber forming an optical fiber depolarizer in an optical fiber sensitive loop of a depolarization type optical fiber gyroscope and the included angle of a polarization main shaft at the fusion point of the polarization maintaining optical fiber, which is abbreviated as follows: a method for measuring parameters of an optical fiber depolarizer in an optical fiber sensitive loop of a depolarizing optical fiber gyroscope.
