The detection of extremely weak near-infrared signal can realize accurate analysis and evaluation of the structure, composition and properties of materials, which provides important support for material design and engineering application. Through the detection and analysis of near-infrared detection signal, comprehensive understanding of the microstructure and macroscopic performance of materials can be realized, which provides scientific basis for the research and application of materials.
[0006] Therefore, the detection of extremely weak near-infrared signals is of great significance in the fields of biomedical science, environmental monitoring, and material science. The development and application of this technology will provide important support for human life and health, environmental protection and sustainable development, material innovation and engineering progress. With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of application, the detection of extremely weak near-infrared signals will show its great potential and value in more fields.
[0007] However, due to the extremely weak intensity of the extremely weak near-infrared signal, its detection becomes a challenging task. First, the scattering of near-infrared light in the element is strong, and the signal intensity decays rapidly. Second, the interference of noise will also affect the accurate detection of the signal. Due to the instability of the light source, environmental interference, and the noise of the instrument itself, various noise components are often mixed in the signal. It is necessary to effectively suppress the noise of the signal to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. However, the current detection equipment still has certain limitations in improving the signal resolution and reducing noise interference.
[0008] The conventional methods to improve the detection accuracy of extremely weak near-infrared signals include increasing the intensity of the near-infrared signal to improve the detection accuracy, and adding a filter and an amplification circuit in the system to build a filter amplification structure with as narrow a bandwidth as possible to filter out noise and achieve the purpose of detecting the signal. However, these conventional methods have problems such as signal loss and noise interference, resulting in low sensitivity and accuracy of signal detection. At the same time, the response rate of the detector in the near-infrared band decreases linearly, the sensitivity decreases rapidly, the detection is difficult, and the detection accuracy decreases significantly. In addition, under the condition that the target signal is extremely weak, the detection is even more difficult. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a method that can effectively improve the detection accuracy of weak near-infrared signals. SUMMARY

[0017] Further, the gate unit further comprises a modulation circuit a connected between the controller a and the signal transceiver module, a modulation circuit b connected between the controller b and the signal transceiver module, a modulation circuit c connected between the controller c and the signal transceiver module, a modulation circuit d connected between the controller d and the signal transceiver module, and a modulation circuit e connected between the controller e and the signal transceiver module.
[0018] Further, the noise reduction processing unit comprises an amplifier, a noise reducer and a filter connected in sequence;
[0019] The input end of the amplifier is connected with the output end of the detector;
[0020] The output end of the filter is connected with the input end of the processor.
[0021] A weak near-infrared signal detection method in gravitational wave detection, using the weak near-infrared signal detection device in gravitational wave detection described above, has the particularity that it comprises the following steps:
[0022] Step 1, determining the initial parameters T, ΔT and weight w of each gate; wherein T=2ΔT, error distribution weight w a > w b ≥ w c > w d ≥ w e , and w a + w b + w c + w d + w e =1;
[0023] Step 2, signal detection is performed to obtain a detection signal S m , a detection signal error E is calculated:
[0024] E = S m -S i
[0025] where S i is an ideal signal;
[0026] Step 3, the error E is weightedly distributed to each gate according to the priority of the gate and the current error size, and an error gradient is obtained:
[0027] E a = w a × E
[0028] E b = w b × E
[0029] E c = w c × E
[0030] E d = w d × E
[0031] E e = w e × E
[0032] Step 4, according to the error gradient, a partial derivative of the error of each gate with respect to the corresponding opening time and a partial derivative of the error with respect to the corresponding duration are calculated and respectively as the gradient direction of updating the opening time and the duration of each gate;

[0034]
[0035] wherein, α is a decay factor, α is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 1;
[0036] Step 6, steps 3-5 are repeated until the detection signal error E i+1 -E i <T, T is a preset threshold, then T i+1 and ΔT i+1 are taken as the optimal opening time and the optimal duration of each gate.
[0037] Advantages of the present application:
[0038] 1. The present application provides a weak near-infrared signal detection device and method in gravitational wave detection, through the form of series-parallel combination, multi-stage gating arrangement, which can flexibly select the best transmission path according to different transmission requirements, improve the data transmission efficiency and speed, and improve the flexibility of the system. The multi-gating cascade design improves the reliability of the system, reduces the system failure rate, and ensures the stability and continuity of data transmission.
[0039] 2. The present application provides a weak near-infrared signal detection device and method in gravitational wave detection, which innovatively designs multiple gating, and combines with the independent control and modulation circuit of each gating, greatly improving the flexibility of signal processing. This design realizes time separation and signal decoupling in the signal transmission process. Different time points are controlled by multiple gating, and each gating can respond to a specific time window. This not only avoids signal conflict, but also effectively reduces the delay phenomenon that may occur in the signal processing process. At the same time, different gating corresponds to different signal channels, which can independently control the transmission and detection of signals. This design ensures the mutual independence of signals, so that the system can process multiple signals of different sources or characteristics at the same time, improving the detection efficiency and sensitivity of the overall system.
[0040] 3. The present application provides a weak near-infrared signal detection method in gravitational wave detection, the opening time and duration of each gating can be dynamically adjusted according to the error of the detection signal to realize adaptive detection. By optimizing and adjusting the opening time and duration of each gating, the system can dynamically correct errors in the signal processing process to ensure that the signal is as close to the ideal state as possible. This real-time correction mechanism can greatly reduce signal distortion. Because the intensity and characteristics of different signals are not the same, the dynamic adjustment of the gating ensures the adaptability to non-uniform or rapidly changing signals, especially in a noisy environment, it can still effectively detect weak signals.
[0041] 4. The present application provides a weak near-infrared signal detection method in gravitational wave detection, by distributing errors to different gating and gradually optimizing the opening and duration of gating. Not only improves the convergence speed of error, but also avoids the local minimum problem that may occur in traditional signal detection devices. Through the continuous updating of errors, the opening and duration of gating gradually approach the optimal state. Each error iteration can make the system closer to the ideal signal capture state, making the signal processing more stable. Because the system performs global weighted distribution of errors each time, the error is not limited to a certain gating. This design ensures the global optimization ability of the error, avoids the local minimum problem that may be caused by traditional methods, and makes the system more robust.
[0042] 5、The signal-to-noise ratio problem is the main technical problem in weak near-infrared signal detection. The weak near-infrared signal detection device in gravitational wave detection provided by the application effectively improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the system through a plurality of noise reduction processing units. The system first amplifies the signal through an amplifier, so that the signal is more easily distinguished and identified in the subsequent processing link. Then, through the cascade processing of the noise reducer and the filter, the environmental noise and instrument noise are further reduced. Different types of noise are usually distributed in different frequency bands, and the filter in the system can selectively suppress noise in different frequency bands. In this way, the interference caused by high-frequency environmental noise and low-frequency light source instability can be effectively suppressed, and the purity and accuracy of the signal can be improved.
[0043] 6、Strong interference, dark and weak environment adaptability. Near-infrared signal detection is often carried out in complex or unstable environments, such as scenes with large temperature changes, weak light or strong stray light interference. The weak near-infrared signal detection device in gravitational wave detection provided by the application is particularly suitable for signal detection in these harsh environments, and the design of multiple signal processing significantly enhances the system's ability to suppress environmental interference, with strong anti-interference ability. In particular, in extreme environments with high optical noise, the system can still maintain high detection accuracy.
[0044] 7、The weak near-infrared signal detection device and method in gravitational wave detection provided by the application mainly uses miniature advanced components to make the entire system small and efficient. Through the improvement and optimization of the signal processing method, the efficiency and performance of the multi-stage gate selection are improved.
[0045] 8、The weak near-infrared signal detection device and method in gravitational wave detection provided by the application adds a modulation circuit composed of buffer, amplifier and other circuit elements in the gate selection circuit to ensure accurate transmission and processing of signals, improve the quality of signals and improve the performance of the circuit.
[0046] 9、The weak near-infrared signal detection device and method in gravitational wave detection provided by the application sends the gating signal to the controller corresponding to each gate through the signal transceiver module, and simultaneously receives the feedback signal of each gate. Through the feedback signal, the opening time and duration of the gate are optimized to achieve optimal gating effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
