Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical measurement technology and fiber optic gyroscope, and in particular to an online monitoring device and method for multiple parameters of a gyroscope optical path. Background Art
[0002] Fiber optic gyroscope is a non-mechanical angular velocity measuring instrument based on Sagnac effect invented in the 1970s. It plays an important role in the fields of aerospace, military, and sensing. As the core component of the fiber optic gyroscope system, the geometric symmetry and optical symmetry of the fiber optic sensitive ring have a decisive influence on the thermal drift performance of the fiber optic gyroscope. Therefore, it is imperative to measure and analyze the physical properties of the optical fiber itself.
[0003] The accurate measurement of the refractive index of optical fiber is closely related to the accuracy of distributed optical fiber sensing. In 2020, Yuan Libo and others from Guilin University of Electronic Technology (CN 110968048 A) invented an orthogonal tilted three-core fiber Bragg grating parallel integrated MachZehnder interferometer. By detecting the output intensity after the interference of three beams, the effective refractive index of the transmission mode in N fiber cores can be calculated. In 2022, Liang Huijuan and others from the 38th Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CN 114665957 A) invented a system and method for measuring the refractive index of optical fiber. A vector network analyzer is used to provide a sweeping signal including signals of different frequencies to the optoelectronic modulator, which is modulated into an optical signal by the optoelectronic modulator and transmitted through the optical fiber to be tested. After that, it is demodulated by the detector and returned to the vector network analyzer to analyze the phase of signals of different frequencies. The length of the optical fiber to be tested is further changed and measured again, thereby achieving high-precision calculation of the refractive index of the optical fiber to be tested.
[0004] On the other hand, under the action of temperature field, thermal strain will aggravate the deterioration of optical symmetry, thereby inducing Mohr effect and Shupe effect, significantly aggravating the thermal drift in the fiber optic gyroscope system. Therefore, it is particularly important to accurately test and analyze the thermal strain of the fiber optic sensitive ring. In 2022, Liu Qingwen et al. (CN 117451203 A) from Shanghai Jiaotong University invented a large-scale quasi-distributed fiber optic sensing method and system. The frequency value of the difference frequency term is obtained based on the beat frequency signal to calculate the optical path between two points, and the temperature change and strain of the optical fiber are obtained by detecting the change in the optical path. In the same year, Wen Kunhua et al. (CN 115452213 A) from Guangdong University of Technology invented a distributed high-precision strain measurement method for fiber optic sensitive rings under temperature variation conditions. It combines DTS and BOTDA systems, realizes temperature compensation of distributed stress test of fiber optic sensitive rings by inference, determines the temperature stability of its internal stress distribution, and thus infers the high-precision internal stress distribution of fiber optic sensitive rings. In 2023, Rao Yunjiang et al. (CN 116576897 A) from Zhijiang Laboratory invented a multi-parameter fiber-optic distributed sensing system and method thereof, which obtains the temperature or strain changes felt by each fiber Bragg grating in the sensing fiber by sensing the wavelength changes corresponding to the wavelength defects in the reflection spectrum of each fiber Bragg grating. In 2024, Dong Yongkang et al. (CN118623781 A) from Harbin Institute of Technology invented a method and device for decoupling temperature and strain of OPGW optical cables based on zero strain reference point and ANN algorithm, and used the temperature-strain decoupling method based on zero strain reference point to demodulate multiple Brillouin gain spectra, obtain the corresponding temperature value of each optical fiber, and realize accurate data demodulation. Zhang Zhuo from Harbin Engineering University (Physical Field Analysis and Coupling Characteristics of Marine Fiber Optic Gyroscopes) analyzed the physical field error mechanism of fiber optic gyroscopes under the coupling of temperature field and stress field, proposed the concepts of fiber optic ring temperature matrix, stress matrix, and weight matrix, and derived the traditional integral accumulation error model into the form of inner products of multiple matrices, providing guidance for the design of fiber optic ring parameters and the selection of optical fiber and solid adhesive materials, thereby improving the accuracy of gyroscopes.
[0005] In terms of fiber optic ring testing technology, B-OTDA and optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR) are two commonly used methods. B-OTDA provides absolute measurements, but its resolution needs to be improved. On the contrary, OFDR has better resolution, but it is only a relative measurement relative to the reference state. Since internal stress has a significant impact on winding quality, some studies have used B-OTDA to monitor the symmetrical stress of fiber optic sensitive rings. Han Zhengying of China Electronics 41 Research Institute (Application of BOTDA fiber optic sensing technology in fiber optic ring quality assessment) used B-OTDA technology to measure the strain distribution of fiber optic sensitive rings under different temperature conditions, and improved the performance of the gyro optical path by screening winding bodies with relatively symmetrical strain changes at each temperature. Yang Jigang and others from Beijing Institute of Automation and Control Equipment published (Research on methods to improve the quality of winding bodies of fiber optic winding bodies). In response to the problem of asymmetric fiber tension during inertial navigation ring winding, the strain data measured by B-OTDA was fed back to the tension control system in real time, thereby improving the stability and symmetry of tension control and significantly improving the symmetry of sensitive rings. At the same time, OFDR technology based on Rayleigh scattering has developed rapidly in recent years. The OFDR system using the polarization-maintaining scheme can simultaneously test temperature and thermal strain. The University of Ottawa in Canada published a paper (Long-range high spatial resolution distributed temperature and strain sensing based on optical frequency-domain reflectometry) proposing a corresponding test and demodulation scheme. By using the characteristics of negative temperature sensing coefficient and positive strain sensing coefficient, it achieved a temperature resolution of ±0.8°C and a thermal strain resolution of ±7.0°C at a sensing distance of 170m. The strain resolution and spatial resolution of 1.3 cm
[74] . Yu Zhangjun et al. published a paper (Distributed Polarization Measurement for Fiber Sensing Coils: A Review) in which they proposed a high-performance method to obtain a dynamic range of >90 dB, a measurement length of >10 km, a full-range spatial resolution of <10 cm, and time domain, frequency domain, and time-frequency domain diagnosis in the distributed polarization measurement of fiber sensing coils based on OFDR, which provided important inspiration for our research.
[0006] However, based on a large number of studies, the parameters that affect the thermal drift of the fiber ring and the relationship between the changes of these parameters in the environment are unclear. At the same time, there is a lack of suitable long-distance, high-precision, and high-spatial resolution temperature and thermal strain test methods, which seriously affects its measurement accuracy. Therefore, establishing a new transfer function from temperature to thermal drift and studying multi-parameter test methods for temperature and thermal strain are extremely important for parameter detection of fiber optic gyroscopes and distributed fiber optic sensing applications. Summary of the invention

The OFDR system formed by an interferometer is used to demodulate the internal reflection signal of the gyro optical path to obtain the influence of temperature and strain on the frequency shift of the gyro optical path.
[0109] Device test principle:
[0110] The OFDR system built can realize independent strain and temperature testing. Based on the P and S signals, the relationship between the frequency shift and temperature and strain obtained by the test is as follows:
[0111]
[0112] Where: is the gauge factor of the cross-correlation frequency shift, is the temperature coefficient of the cross-correlation frequency shift.
[0113] It can be seen that the OFDR test results include both strain and temperature. The frequency shift obtained by OFDR testing includes the influence of both temperature and strain. The obtained spectral offset is converted by temperature and gauge coefficient to obtain the corresponding temperature and strain values.
[0114] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:

[0125] In order to clearly illustrate the device and method for online monitoring of gyro optical path based on OFDR of the present invention, the present invention is further described in conjunction with embodiments and drawings, but this should not limit the protection scope of the present invention.
[0126] Figure 3 This is the structure of the optical path of the gyroscope to be tested of the present invention. Its characteristics are:
[0127] The optical path structure of the gyro to be tested is composed of the first gyro optical path 430, the first Y waveguide 851, the first optical fiber ring 854, the second gyro optical path 432, the second Y waveguide 857, the second optical fiber ring 860 ... the Nth gyro optical path 434, the NYth waveguide 863, and the Nth optical fiber ring 866. The first Y waveguide 851 includes the first Y waveguide positive electrode 852 and the first Y waveguide negative electrode 853; the second Y waveguide 857 includes the second Y waveguide positive electrode 858 and the second Y waveguide negative electrode 859; the NYth waveguide 857 includes the NYth waveguide positive electrode 864 and the NYth waveguide negative electrode 865;
[0128] When any of the gyro optical paths is connected to the OFDR test system optical path, the light is divided into two paths after passing through the input pigtail and the Y waveguide. Therefore, the fiber optic gyroscope has clockwise forward transmission light and counterclockwise reverse transmission light. The controller 601 applies a square wave with an amplitude of half-wave voltage of the Y waveguide and a frequency of the eigenfrequency to the two electrodes, which can cancel out the interference of the forward and reverse transmission light of the fiber optic gyroscope and improve the test sensitivity. The forward and reverse transmission lights undergo beat frequency interference at the Y waveguide and return to the OFDR test system optical path with the scattering information of the gyroscope optical path.
[0129] At the same time, the broadband light is injected by the SLD light source 701, through the 0° polarizer 703, and then injected into the same gyro optical path from the P path through the sixth coupler 707 and the optical switch 410. The return light passes through the fifth coupler 308 and returns to the gyro system 708 for detection and demodulation.
[0130] Combination Figure 4 , the full temperature test method is as follows:
[0131] Step 819 is to set the temperature range of the high and low temperature box to T1~T2, and the temperature change rate to 1℃ / min.
[0132] Step 820 is to place the gyro optical path inside a temperature box to keep the gyro optical path heated on all four sides.
[0133] Step 821 is to keep the gyro optical path at temperature T3 for 30 minutes.
[0134] Step 822 is to cool the temperature of the oven from T3 to T1 at a rate of 1°C / min.
[0135] Step 823 is to keep the gyro optical path at temperature T1 for 60 minutes.
[0136] Step 824 is to increase the temperature of the oven from T1 to T2 at a rate of 1°C / min.
[0137] Step 825 is to keep the gyro optical path at temperature T2 for 60 minutes.
[0138] Step 826 is that the OFDR system performs a test every 5 minutes.
[0139] Figure 5 The invention is an online monitoring device for multi-parameters of a gyroscope optical path, comprising a TLS light source module 1, an auxiliary interferometer module 2, a main interferometer module 3, a module to be tested 4, a temperature control sensor module 5, a control and data processing module 6 and a fiber optic gyroscope angular velocity test module 7. The structure of the module to be tested 4 is similar to that of the TLS light source module 1. Figure 3 The optical path structures of the N gyroscopes to be tested are the same.
[0140] Combination Figure 5One implementation of the present invention is: setting the sweep range of the TLS light source 101 to 10nm~160nm and the sweep speed to 10nm / s, and 1% of the swept light emitted by the first coupler 202 enters the auxiliary interferometer module 2 and 99% enters the main interferometer module 3.
[0141] 1% of the light entering the main interferometer module 3 passes through the third coupler left upper arm 303 and the fourth coupler right upper arm 305 and enters the fourth coupler 306 , and the other 99% passes through the third coupler left lower arm 307 and the sixth coupler lower arm 714 and enters the optical switch 410 .
[0142] The 1% light passing through the third coupler left upper arm 303 and the fourth coupler right upper arm 305 is used as a reference signal, and the 99% light passing through the third coupler left lower arm 307 and the sixth coupler lower arm 714 is input into the optical switch 410 and a gyroscope optical path as a test signal. The two signals are received by the data acquisition card 603 with a sampling frequency of 180MHz after the beat frequency interference occurs at the fourth coupler 306.
[0143] The controller 601 performs opening and closing operations on the 1×N output ports of the optical switch 410.
[0144] If the current time sequence is a value in an arithmetic progression with a first term of 2 and a tolerance of N, the optical switch switches to the first port 404, and the control machine 601 triggers the TLS light source 101 and the data acquisition card 603 to test the first gyro optical path 430;
[0145] If the current time sequence is a value in an arithmetic progression with a first term of 3 and a tolerance of N, the optical switch switches to the second port 411, and the control machine 601 triggers the TLS light source 101 and the data acquisition card 603 to test the second gyro optical path 432;
[0146] If the current time sequence is a value in an arithmetic progression with the first term being N+1 and the tolerance being N, the optical switch switches to the Nth port 421 , and the control machine 601 triggers the TLS light source 101 and the data acquisition card 603 to test the Nth gyro optical path 434 .
[0147] When any of the gyro optical paths is connected to the OFDR test system optical path, the light is divided into two paths after passing through the input pigtail and the Y waveguide. Therefore, the fiber optic gyroscope has clockwise forward transmission light and counterclockwise reverse transmission light. The controller 601 applies a square wave with an amplitude of half-wave voltage of the Y waveguide and a frequency of the eigenfrequency to the two electrodes, which can cancel out the interference of the forward and reverse transmission light of the fiber optic gyroscope and improve the test sensitivity. The forward and reverse transmission lights undergo beat frequency interference at the Y waveguide and return to the OFDR test system optical path with the scattering information of the gyroscope optical path.
[0148] At the same time, the SLD light source 101 selects a wide-spectrum light source with a central wavelength of 1550nm±20nm and a spectrum width ≥40nm, and is injected into the same gyro optical path from the P path through the sixth coupler 707 and the optical switch 410 via the 0° polarizer 703. The return light passes through the fifth coupler 308 with a splitting ratio of 50:50 and returns to the gyro system 708 for detection and demodulation to obtain the angular velocity of the fiber optic gyroscope.
[0149] Collect test data. Perform phase noise compensation on the data uploaded to the data processor to determine whether the terminal reflection peak intensity after compensation is consistent with normal temperature. If consistent, complete the test of the gyro optical path and record the temperature sensor data of the corresponding time sequence. If inconsistent, re-perform phase noise compensation until the terminal reflection peak intensity after compensation is consistent with normal temperature.
[0150] Record the P and S test data, and get the scattering spectrum signal after Fourier transformation.
[0151] OFDR system strain demodulation. The reference signal and the test signal are cross-correlated by the demodulation algorithm to obtain the Rayleigh scatter frequency shift of the gyro optical path under temperature variation.
[0152] The influence of the thermo-optical coefficient is corrected according to the temperature sensor data, thereby obtaining the gyro optical path strain data. The gyro optical path strain test results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown in Figure 2, the spatial resolution of this OFDR-based gyro optical path multi-parameter test device is 5 cm, and the strain resolution is ±1 .
