Problems solved by technology

However, there is a large error in the reconstruction of the shape with a large radius of curvature, which is due to the fact that the shape with a large radius of curvature induces less strain in the multi-core fiber
In addition, the OFDR system directly obtains the frequency shift information of the Rayleigh scattering spectrum, but the shape sensing requires the strain information of the multi-core fiber, and the calibration coefficient of the Rayleigh scattering spectrum frequency shift and the strain of the multi-core fiber needs to be calibrated. There will be large errors in the calibration process

Abstract

The invention relates to a distributed three-dimensional shape sensing demodulation method based on optical frequency domain reflection parameter optimization. The method comprises the following stepsthat two times of measurement are carried out by using a distributed three-dimensional shape sensing system, and at the first time, a to-be-tested optical fiber portion is placed in a natural linearstate and measured Rayleigh scattered optical frequency domain data are reference data; at the second time, a to-be-tested multi-core optical fiber is placed in any shape, and a small circle with theknown radius is arranged at the tail of the multi-core optical fiber, at the moment, measured Rayleigh scattered optical frequency domain data are recorded as measured data; fast Fourier transform iscarried out on the two sets of data including the reference data and the measured data; local distance domain signals of the two sets of data are subjected to inverse Fourier transform; according to the ratio of the reconstructed curvature radius and the actual curvature radius, a Rayleigh scattered spectrum frequency shift and strain calibration coefficient of the whole measurement system in thestate is determined; and Rayleigh scattered spectrum frequency shift of a maximum curvature radius portion of a to-be-tested shape is processed to obtain strain, shape reconstruction is carried out, and an error is verified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber shape sensing, in particular to a distributed three-dimensional shape sensing system and method. Background technique [0002] Optical fiber shape sensing is a sensing technology that uses the strain data measured simultaneously by optical fiber to restore the shape of the monitored object through a special algorithm. Due to its unique features of minimal interference and almost no weight, it has been widely used in two-dimensional or three-dimensional positioning, such as minimally invasive surgical catheter or flexible needle tracking, and structural health monitoring, aerospace. Looking at the research on optical fiber shape sensors at home and abroad, it can be seen that researchers mainly focus on the type based on FBG, but there are shortcomings in long-distance sensing; another type based on distributed Brillouin optical time domain analysis The optical fiber sensing technology of ad...
