Problems solved by technology

[0004] The Mach-Zehnder fiber interference structure is widely used in vibration signal measurement, but when the fiber is disturbed by the outside world, due to the birefringence effect of the fiber, the polarization state in the ordinary single-mode fiber will change randomly, resulting in random detection signals. Fading, especially when the polarization states of the light in the two arms of the fiber optic interferometer are orthogonal, the interference signal output by the interferometer is zero, so polarization-induced signal fading has become a serious problem affecting signal measurement of interferometric fiber optic sensors
