Problems solved by technology

However, neither of them gave detailed instructions on how to improve the dynamic range of the demodulated signal of the PGC algorithm and the suppression of associated amplitude modulation harmonics.
The advantage of the 3×3 coupler fixed phase shift algorithm is that it makes full use of the sampling bandwidth, and all the signals within the sampling frequency are involved in the calculation, so that signals with larger amplitudes and higher frequencies can be demodulated, but what follows is coupling in More noise, degrading the phase resolution of the system
Moreover, the 3×3 coupler fixed phase shift algorithm requires the coupler to be perfectly symmetrical, and the three outputs have the same splitting ratio and a fixed phase difference of 120°. When the splitting ratio and phase difference change, the demodulation results will deteriorate.
Xie Yong et al. proposed a portable multi-functional optical fiber hydrophone signal demodulation method (CN200910100835.3), which combines the PGC demodulation method and the 3×3 fixed phase shift demodulation method into one device, but The device cannot run two algorithms at the same time, and cannot expand the dynamic range and phase resolution at the same time, and complete the suppression of harmonics

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of fiber-optic interferometer measurement, and more particularly relates to an improved phase generated carrier (PGC) demodulation method. The improved phase generated carrier (PGC) demodulation method comprises the steps of using a first path of fixed phase FPS signals and a second path of FPS signals that are outputted by a 3x3 coupler at the rear end of an interferometer for FPS algorithm phase demodulation; and using a phase generated carrier algorithm for demodulating a first path of PGC signals and finally performing reasonable integration of the demodulation results of the two algorithms. The invention combines the fixed phase method based on the 3x3 coupler with the PGC algorithm, and uses the PGC algorithm for demodulating low-frequency small signals and the FPS algorithm for outputting high-frequency large signals, so as to improve the phase resolution of the system and enlarge the dynamic range while an original sampling rate is maintained, thereby finally increasing the phase resolution and dynamic range and eliminating associated amplitude modulation influence under a constant sampling rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The design of the invention belongs to the field of optical fiber interferometer measurement, and in particular relates to an improved PGC demodulation method for generating carrier phase. Background technique [0002] The interferometric optical fiber sensor uses the phase change in the optical path to measure physical quantities, including vibration, stress, displacement, speed, etc. This method has the characteristics of high sensitivity, high linearity, small size, and large dynamic range. Typical fiber optic sensor applications include fiber optic hydrophones, fiber optic seismometers, fiber optic strain gauges, etc. Optical fiber seismometers can monitor large-scale signals such as earthquakes and nuclear explosions. Zumberge et al. pointed out that its dynamic range is about 180dB1kHz; optical fiber hydrophones are mainly used to monitor underwater invisible targets and blind areas that cannot be detected by radar. Compared with the traditional...
