Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sensor calibration technology, specifically to an optical microphone test platform, test system and directivity test method, non-contact frequency response test method, minimum offset test method and contact frequency response test method. Background Technology
[0002] An optical microphone is a device that uses a laser beam and a reflective surface to capture sound, converting it into a digital signal for output. The working principle of an optical microphone is based on the effect of sound waves on the refractive index of a medium. Specifically, when sound pressure acts on a medium, it causes a change in the medium's refractive index. This change is transmitted to the laser beam passing through the device via a Fabry-Perot interferometer. Because the phase of the light changes due to the change in refractive index, this phenomenon is used to generate an electrical signal. Optical microphones have been successfully applied in various process control and non-destructive testing applications. Optical microphones have a wider detection range and can effectively remove the influence of low-frequency background noise, focusing on the analysis of high-frequency ultrasonic signals. However, currently, there is no comprehensive device on the market for testing and verifying the performance of optical microphones. Summary of the Invention
