Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical fiber current sensing, and in particular to a device, system and method for correcting feedback phase shift nonlinearity of an optical fiber current sensor. Background Art

[0002] High current technology is widely used in fields such as metallurgy, electric power, national defense and military industry, and controlled nuclear fusion research. Accurate current measurement is closely related to safe production, energy conservation and emission reduction, product quality control, and major scientific research. The interferometric fiber optic current sensor based on the Faraday magneto-optical effect has the characteristics of high measurement accuracy, large dynamic range, wide frequency response range (can measure AC and DC currents simultaneously), strong resistance to external magnetic field interference, and good portability. It has broad application prospects in the field of high current measurement. Ultra-high current carrying busbars are often difficult to disconnect, requiring high current sensors to be installed in an opening. Flexible fiber optic current sensors encapsulate the sensing optical fiber into a flexible optical cable, which can directly surround the measured current with a certain number of turns without disconnecting the current carrying busbar to form a sensitive loop, which well meets the actual needs of large current online measurement.

[0003] The fiber-optic current sensor uses a reflective Sagnac interferometer as its sensing optical path. A quarter-wave plate converts two orthogonal linearly polarized beams into left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light. These two orthogonal circularly polarized beams propagate back and forth through a closed-end fiber-optic sensitive loop, generating a phase difference proportional to the measured current. Due to the reciprocity of the optical path structure, the interference intensity of the two signal beams carries only the Faraday phase shift generated by the measured current. This interference intensity is converted into an electrical signal by a photodetector. For signal processing, the sensor employs closed-loop signal detection technology. The detection system demodulates the Faraday phase shift from the interference intensity and generates a feedback phase shift of equal magnitude and opposite sign in real time, locking the system at the quadrature operating point and ensuring high linearity over a wide dynamic range. This feedback phase shift also serves as the sensor output.

[0004] To suppress the influence of linear birefringence caused by fiber bending, flexible fiber optic current sensors usually use elliptical birefringence fiber as the sensing fiber. This fiber is formed by rotating a polarization-maintaining fiber preform while drawing it. Its birefringence axis is distributed helically along the fiber axis, and the pitch is determined by the rotation period and the drawing speed. The two important parameters that describe the characteristics of this fiber are the pitch L and the t and line length L b (beat length of polarization-maintaining fiber in the unrotated state), define η = 2L b / L t .

[0005] The polarization eigenmodes of an elliptically birefringent fiber are two orthogonal elliptically polarized beams. Their ellipticity is related to η. A larger η indicates that the polarization eigenmodes approach circular polarization. Ideally, the polarization eigenmodes of the sensing fiber are left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized. The phase difference detected by the closed-loop sensor system is simply the Faraday phase shift generated by the measured current, and the feedback phase shift is proportional to the measured current. However, in practice, η is not easily achieved, typically ranging from 1 to 5. In this case, the circularly polarized light entering the elliptically birefringent fiber cannot maintain its polarization state. The phase difference detected by the closed-loop sensor system is related not only to the Faraday phase shift generated by the measured current, but also to the linear and circular birefringence determined by the beat length and pitch. The feedback phase shift has a nonlinear relationship with the measured current, and the nonlinearity becomes more pronounced with increasing measured current, seriously affecting the sensor's measurement accuracy over a wide dynamic range.

[0006] Existing flexible fiber optic current sensors generally have nonlinear problems and cannot guarantee measurement accuracy within a large dynamic range. Summary of the Invention
