Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for measuring distributed-type polarization maintaining optical fiber double refraction based on Brillouin dynamic grating, belonging to the field of optics and aiming at solving the problems that in the traditional technology for measuring the polarization maintaining optical fiber double refraction, the measuring time is very long, and the long distance resolution and the high spatial resolution cannot be met at the same time. The method disclosed by the invention comprises the following steps of: incoming a pumping pulsed light from one end of the polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested, incoming a continuous pump light from the other end of the polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested after incoming a probe pulse light, incoming the continuous pump light and the pumping pulsed light to the same optical principal axis, incoming the probe pulse light to the other optical principal axis, and generating the Brillouin dynamic grating as the continuous pump light and the pumping pulsed light are met in the polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested and are simulated by Brillouin scattering; and reflecting the probe pulse light by the grating, injecting pumping pulsed light and the probe pulse lights with different frequencies repeatedly, obtaining the reflection light intensity of the polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested in each position point in different frequencies, and thus obtaining the double refraction of the polarization maintaining optical fiber to be tested in each position point.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a distributed polarization-maintaining optical fiber birefringence measurement method and device based on a Brillouin dynamic grating, and belongs to the field of optics. Background technique [0002] Polarization-maintaining optical fiber has attracted great attention and extensive research because of its wide application in the field of optical fiber communication and optical fiber sensing. figure 1 Shown is a cross-sectional view of a widely used panda-type polarization-maintaining fiber. It has two optical principal axes, namely the fast axis and the slow axis. The refractive index of the fast axis is n f , the refractive index of the slow axis is n s , the difference between the refractive index of the fast axis and the slow axis is the birefringence of the polarization maintaining fiber, and the birefringence of the polarization maintaining fiber is one of the most important parameters in its application. Due to the inh...
