Abstract

The present invention relates to an FMCW frequency sweep non-leaner calibration system based on closed loop control. The system comprises a frequency sweep laser source, a coupler, a delay optical fiber, an acousto-optic frequency shifter, a photoelectric detector, a frequency spectrum analyzer, a digital phase frequency detector and a summator. Meanwhile, the present invention provides a calibration method of the above system. The method comprises the steps of using the frequency sweep laser source to emit the optical signals of continuous phases, wherein one optical signal is delayed by the optical fiber, and the other one optical signal is carried out the optical frequency shift by the acousto-optic frequency shifter; after the two optical signals are combined, using the balance photoelectric detector to detect a beat frequency optical signal; using the digital phase frequency detector to compare the phases of the beat frequency optical signal and a radio frequency reference signal, and feeding back an outputted error signal to a laser after signal conditioning, thereby finishing the enclosed loop control of a whole loop. According to the present invention, the non-linear output optical frequency of the frequency sweep laser source is calibrated accurately, the output optical frequency linearity is improved obviously, and the spatial resolution of a FMCW ranging system is improved substantially.
