Problems solved by technology

If you want to measure multiple distances, you need to introduce an optical path switching device, and because the scanning speed of the spectral splitting mechanism (such as a grating, tunable light source) in a fiber optic spectrometer is generally on the order of millimeters or seconds, while the optical path switching device is on the order of hundreds of milliseconds , so the overall measurement speed is on the order of hundreds of milliseconds, and there are problems that the measurement speed is not high, and the bandwidth of the light source and the spectrometer cannot be fully utilized.

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a multichannel synchronous absolute distance measurement method and device based on all-fiber frequency domain interference, and relates to the technical fieldof absolute distance precision measurement. The method comprises the steps that a broadband light source is divided into n paths of measurement light, and the n paths of measurement light pass through an optical fiber probe and a measurement target and then return to n paths of reference light and corresponding detection light; all the n paths of reference light and the spectrum after the frequency domain interference of the corresponding detection light are integrated, and the light intensity of the light and the spectrum are recorded, wherein Ii(f) is the light intensity after the frequencydomain interference of the n paths of reference light and the corresponding detection light; and segmentation processing is performed on the I(f) to obtain a corresponding power spectrum function Gi(t) so as to obtain an absolute distance between the end surface of the optical fiber probe corresponding to each channel and the surface of a reflector.
