The invention discloses a demodulating device for an
optical fiber Young interference
optical path difference based on low coherent interference. The demodulating device comprises a
wideband light source, a 3dB coupler, a sensing interferometer, a demodulating interferometer, a calibration interferometer and a
line array camera, wherein a multimode
optical fiber is adopted in a light path formed by the components in sequence for optical
signal transmission. A demodulating method mainly comprises the steps of
optical path difference sensing,
optical path difference demodulating and optical path difference calibration. Compared with the prior art, the demodulating device and the method integrate
modes of space scanning and time scanning to conduct low coherent interference optical path difference demodulating; no mechanical movement is available; the stability is high; compared with the time scanning, the demodulating precision is not affected by moving precision of a scanning motor; the nano-level high precision demodulating can be realized; the optical path difference calibration of an overall
system is realized by adjusting the optical path difference; in addition, a nano displacement platform is adopted to control the output optical path difference effectively; an optical path difference demodulating interval of the overall
system is amended; and with the adoption of an
optical fiber interferometer structural form, the
system adjustment is facilitated and the working stability is high.
