Description

光纤水听器阵列***和加速度传感器阵列***及测量方法Fiber optic hydrophone array system and acceleration sensor array system and measuring method 技术领域Technical field
本发明涉及光纤传感技术,具体涉及一种光纤水听器阵列***和加速度传感器阵列***及测量方法。The present invention relates to optical fiber sensing technology, and in particular to a fiber optic hydrophone array system and an acceleration sensor array system and a measuring method.
背景技术Background technique
随着国家海洋战略的实施以及国防安全的需要,光纤水听器作为一种能够对水下目标进行探测、定位和识别的传感器受到了越来越多的关注与研究。当声波作用到光纤水听器探头上时将会引起光纤中光波场的相位、强度等参量发生变化,通过一定的解调方法即可得到外界的声波场。目前常用的光纤水听器一般都是基于Mach-Zehnder或Michelson干涉仪结构来构建的。此外,由于水下声场的复杂性,单个的水听器探头很难获得目标的详细信息,因此需要多探头的复用,从而组成水听器阵列。目前研究较多的光纤水听器阵列复用技术有:空分复用、时分复用、波分复用、频分复用等。在各种复用技术中,时分复用是最简单有效的方案,并且由于其易与波分复用技术相结合而实现水听器的大规模阵列化,从而备受各国研究者的青睐。With the implementation of the national marine strategy and the need for national defense security, fiber-optic hydrophones have received more and more attention and research as a sensor capable of detecting, locating and identifying underwater targets. When the sound wave acts on the fiber optic hydrophone probe, the phase, intensity and other parameters of the optical wave field in the optical fiber will change, and the external acoustic wave field can be obtained by a certain demodulation method. Currently used fiber optic hydrophones are generally constructed based on the Mach-Zehnder or Michelson interferometer structure. In addition, due to the complexity of the underwater sound field, it is difficult for a single hydrophone probe to obtain detailed information of the target, so multiple probes need to be multiplexed to form a hydrophone array. At present, many fiber optic hydrophone array multiplexing technologies are studied: space division multiplexing, time division multiplexing, wavelength division multiplexing, frequency division multiplexing, and the like. Among various multiplexing technologies, time division multiplexing is the simplest and most effective scheme, and it is easy to be combined with wavelength division multiplexing technology to realize large-scale arraying of hydrophones, which is favored by researchers all over the world.
参考文献“张楠.大规模光纤水听器阵列光学外差及时分复用技术研究[D].国防科学技术大学,2007.”中给出了目前较常用的光纤水听器时分复用阵列***结构图。该方案中复用的水听器探头采用了Michelson干涉仪结构,一个水听器探头包括一个一分二耦合器、一段L长光纤、一个法拉第旋镜和一个水听器探头骨架四部分,其中L长光纤绕在水听器探头骨架上来感测外界声波信号。利用不同探头反射回来脉冲的时延不同实现脉冲的错位干涉,通过对干涉信号的解调即可得到外界的声波信号。References "Zhang Nan. Research on optical heterodyne and time-division multiplexing technology for large-scale fiber-optic hydrophone arrays [D]. National University of Defense Technology, 2007." The current commonly used fiber-optic hydrophone time-division multiplexing arrays are given. System structure diagram. The hydrophone probe multiplexed in the scheme adopts a Michelson interferometer structure. A hydrophone probe includes a splitter coupler, a length of L fiber, a Faraday mirror and a hydrophone probe skeleton. The L long fiber is wound around the hydrophone probe skeleton to sense the external sound wave signal. The time delay of the pulse reflected by different probes is different to realize the misalignment interference of the pulse, and the external acoustic signal can be obtained by demodulating the interference signal.
现有技术中,一个水听器探头至少包括一个一分二耦合器、一段L长光纤、一个法拉第旋镜和一个水听器探头骨架四部分。首先为了保持各基元反射回来信号光强的大小基本一致,耦合器的分光比需要进行合理的设计。其次为了各反射脉冲能够准确的对上进行干涉,需要较精确的控制光纤的长度。最后为了消除偏振态对干涉信号的影响,因此加入了法拉第旋镜,但在一些特殊应用环境中(比如高温环境),对法拉第旋镜的性能有较高的要求。这些都增加了***设计的复杂度与困难。 In the prior art, a hydrophone probe includes at least one splitter coupler, a length of L long fiber, a Faraday mirror and a hydrophone probe skeleton. Firstly, in order to keep the signal intensity of each element reflected substantially the same, the splitter ratio of the coupler needs to be rationally designed. Secondly, in order to accurately interfere with each of the reflected pulses, it is necessary to control the length of the optical fiber more accurately. Finally, in order to eliminate the influence of the polarization state on the interference signal, the Faraday mirror is added, but in some special application environments (such as high temperature environment), the performance of the Faraday mirror is highly demanded. These all add to the complexity and difficulty of system design.
发明内容Summary of the invention

The vibration information caused by the external acoustic wave signal is modulated by the elastic cylinder on the skeleton of the hydrophone probe to the back-scattered Rayleigh scattering signal, and then modulated to the heterodyne frequency of the heterodyne signal by interference; the heterodyne signal passes through the circulator The three ports enter the second erbium-doped fiber amplifier, and after being amplified by the second erbium-doped fiber amplifier, the noise is filtered through the filter; then, the photodetector is reached, the signal is collected by the high-speed data acquisition card, and finally the signal is sent out on the industrial computer. The difference is demodulated to obtain an external acoustic wave signal, where f 1 ≠f 2 , L d >0.
外差信号的采样频率即脉冲重复频率应该是外差频率Δf的4倍以上,外差频率要尽量的大,因此一般选4倍关系;外差脉冲对的间隔Ld要大于脉冲宽度w,以保障两个脉冲没有重叠,在这个基础上间隔要尽量小。可探测的外界声波信号的频率的上限为外差频率的一半,可探测的外界声波信号的频率的下限由用于时域重构的背向散射曲线的条数决定,频率下限为fs/M,其中fs为脉冲重复频率,M为用于时域重构的背向散射曲线的条数。The sampling frequency of the heterodyne signal, that is, the pulse repetition frequency should be more than 4 times the heterodyne frequency Δf, and the heterodyne frequency should be as large as possible, so the relationship of 4 times is generally selected; the interval L d of the heterodyne pulse pair is larger than the pulse width w, In order to ensure that the two pulses do not overlap, the interval should be as small as possible on this basis. The upper limit of the frequency of the detectable external sound wave signal is half of the heterodyne frequency, and the lower limit of the frequency of the detectable external sound wave signal is determined by the number of backscattering curves used for time domain reconstruction, and the lower frequency limit is f s / M, where f s is the pulse repetition frequency and M is the number of backscatter curves for time domain reconstruction.
