Abstract

The invention discloses a modulation depth extraction and compensation method in a PGC phase demodulation method. The method comprises the steps: multiplying filtered, amplified and analog-digital sampled interference signals by reference signals of a first-order harmonic, a second-order harmonic and a third-order harmonic respectively, performing low-pass filtering to obtain three harmonic amplitude signals, performing differential operation on the three harmonic amplitude signals to obtain three harmonic differential signals, and solving modulation depth by using the harmonic amplitude signals and the harmonic differential signals; in combination with a Bessel function recursion formula, constructing a new harmonic amplitude signal which is not influenced by the modulation depth throughthe harmonic amplitude signal and the solved modulation depth value, so that the influence of the modulation depth is eliminated; and finally, accurately solving the phase to be measured through arc tangent operation. According to the method, the problem that nonlinear errors are difficult to compensate in real time due to modulation depth fluctuation in the PGC phase demodulation technology is solved, the phase measurement precision is improved, and the method can be widely applied to the technical field of interferometric optical fiber sensors and sinusoidal phase modulation interference.
