Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of atmospheric ozone detection, in particular to an ozone differential absorption laser radar system and an atmospheric ozone distribution detection method Background Art
[0002] Although ozone plays an important role in protecting humans and the environment in the stratosphere, if its concentration increases in the troposphere, it will cause serious harm to humans, animal and plant growth and the ecological environment. It also plays an important role in tropospheric photochemistry, atmospheric environmental quality and ecological environment. Differential absorption lidar technology has become an effective means of detecting atmospheric ozone distribution due to its advantages such as high spatial resolution, fast real-time and large dynamic range.
[0003] At present, lasers are usually used to emit laser light sources to pump gases (such as hydrogen, deuterium, CO2) Raman tubes to generate corresponding Raman lasers of different wavelengths. After beam expansion and collimation, Raman lasers and laser light sources are emitted into the atmosphere. After atmospheric attenuation, they are scattered and absorbed by particles in the atmosphere. Differential absorption is formed by using the different absorption degrees of Raman lasers of different wavelengths by ozone. After scattering and absorption by atmospheric particles and ozone, the backscattered laser is extinguished by the atmosphere again on the return journey, and then received by the receiving optical system, photoelectrically converted by the photodetector, and finally the echo signal is collected. The spatial distribution information of ozone concentration can be obtained using the differential absorption algorithm. Systems based on tunable laser light sources or OPO tuning technology are usually technically complex, costly, and inconvenient to maintain. Summary of the invention

[0063] Using a direct receiving method: the reflected part of the light split by the first dichroic mirror is a light beam containing a wavelength of 287nm, which is filtered by the fourth filter to obtain a single light beam with a wavelength of 287nm, and the light beam is focused by the third lens onto the second detector of 287nm, where the main signal is the Mie scattering echo signal with a wavelength of 287nm, which is used for differential absorption inversion of ozone concentration distribution. The fourth filter includes but is not limited to an interference filter, and the third lens includes but is not limited to a focusing lens.
[0064] Using a 9:1 splitting receiving method: the reflected part of the light split by the second dichroic mirror is a light beam containing a wavelength of 287nm, which is filtered by the fourth filter to obtain a single light beam with a wavelength of 287nm, and then split by the first beam splitter to obtain light beams with a transmission and reflection energy ratio of 9:1. The light beams are focused by the third lens and the fourth lens to the corresponding 287nm second detector and third detector, respectively. Here, it is mainly the Mie scattering echo signal with a wavelength of 287nm, which is used for differential absorption inversion of ozone concentration distribution. Wherein, the first beam splitter includes but is not limited to a 9:1 beam splitter, and the fourth lens includes but is not limited to a focusing lens.
[0065] Using a direct receiving method: the transmission part of the light split by the second dichroic mirror is a light beam with a wavelength of 299nm, which is filtered by the fifth filter to obtain a single light beam with a wavelength of 299nm. The light beam is focused by the fifth lens to the fourth detector of 299nm, where the main signal is the Mie scattering echo signal with a wavelength of 299nm, which is used for differential absorption inversion of ozone concentration distribution. Among them, the fifth filter is an interference filter, and the fifth lens and the sixth lens are both focusing lenses.
[0066] Use 9:1 splitting receiving mode: the transmission part split by the second dichroic mirror is a beam containing a wavelength of 299nm, which is filtered by the fifth filter to obtain a single beam of 299nm wavelength, and then split by the second beam splitter to obtain beams with a transmission and reflection energy ratio of 9:1. The beams are focused by the fifth lens and the sixth lens to the corresponding 299nm fourth detector and fifth detector, which are mainly Mie scattering echo signals with a wavelength of 299nm, and are used for differential absorption inversion of ozone concentration distribution. Wherein, the second beam splitter includes but is not limited to a 9:1 beam splitter,
[0067] The atmospheric ozone distribution detection method proposed in the present invention utilizes the backscattering measurement and ozone differential absorption principle to invert the spatial distribution information of ozone through the ozone absorption characteristic algorithm. A 9:1 beam splitter is used to split the 287nm and 299nm echo signals, and the energy ratio algorithm can avoid the influence of the echo signal being easily saturated.
