Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of signal demodulation, and in particular relates to a high-performance 3×3 coupler and PGC fusion improved demodulation method and device. Background Art

[0002] The 3×3 coupler demodulation method has many advantages such as high sensitivity, low signal loss, high adaptability, and strong anti-interference ability, while the Phase Generation Carrier (PGC) demodulation technology has many advantages such as large dynamic range, high sensitivity, and strong signal fidelity. Therefore, these two algorithms are widely used in high-precision and high anti-interference measurements of distributed optical fiber sensors, hydrophones, interferometers and other instruments and equipment. The 3×3 coupler demodulation method is to achieve phase demodulation by introducing a 3×3 coupler with a 120o phase difference between the two arms and combining it with an interference structure; while the PGC demodulation technology suppresses low-frequency noise by introducing a high-frequency carrier modulation signal, and then restores the original signal to be measured through calculation. It is mainly divided into the arctangent (Arctangent, PGC-Arctan) algorithm and the differential cross multiplication (Differential Cross Multiplication, PGC-DCM) algorithm.

[0003] However, the 3×3 coupler demodulation method is limited by its structure and other factors. The output signal is easily affected by light intensity disturbance or polarization fading, resulting in the three-way output phase not forming 120°, and the demodulation effect is poor; the differential cross-multiplication algorithm and the inverse tangent algorithm are very sensitive to light intensity disturbance, carrier phase delay and modulation depth fluctuation. In addition, since the inverse tangent algorithm divides the orthogonal components of the two mixed channels through a low-pass filter to obtain the tangent value, and then performs the inverse tangent operation to restore the signal to be measured, this method can only be used in When working within a range, jumps will occur at the range boundary, making it difficult to demodulate signals outside the range.

[0004] In order to improve the demodulation accuracy of the demodulation results, and at the same time improve the system's sensitivity to tiny signal detection and the anti-interference of the demodulation algorithm, it is generally only possible to upgrade the structure of the sensing system in hardware or improve the design of the calculation derivation process. Most of the existing improved algorithms can only eliminate the influence of some of these factors. For example, the invention with publication number CN110411334B proposes an improved phase carrier PGC demodulation method, which eliminates the influence of carrier phase delay and solves the problem that the interference signal will be out of sync with the frequency-multiplied signal due to analog-to-digital conversion; the 2022 article "Animproved PGC demodulation algorithm for optical fiber interferometers withinsensitive to carrier phase delay and modulation depth" proposes an improved algorithm based on PGC-DCM that eliminates the influence of carrier phase delay and simultaneously compensates for modulation depth. There are few methods that can eliminate three factors at the same time. To address this problem, the invention with publication number CN118353539A proposes a high-performance phase-generated carrier demodulation method and device. However, although the invention can eliminate the influence of three disturbance factors at the same time, it does not take into account the detection sensitivity and anti-interference performance of tiny signals. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problem that the existing demodulation technology is difficult to simultaneously eliminate the three influencing factors of light intensity interference, carrier phase delay and modulation depth, and enhance the ability to detect small signals, while improving the demodulation accuracy and system stability, the present invention proposes a high-performance 3×3 coupler and PGC fusion improved demodulation method and device, which uses a 3×3 coupler and PGC fusion improved demodulation method to demodulate the signal to be measured from three initial interference signals, which not only eliminates the influence of the three factors of light intensity interference, carrier phase delay and modulation depth on the demodulation result, but also introduces a 3×3 coupler structure to amplify the small signal, improve the small signal detection sensitivity and phase demodulation accuracy, and enhance the anti-interference ability.

[0071]

[0072] Where, J1(C) is the first-order Bessel function, and J2(C) is the second-order Bessel function;

[0073] The second measured interference signal I2(t) is divided into three paths after passing through the second DC filter. One path is directly filtered by a low-pass filter to obtain a third filtered signal L3. The other two paths are mixed with the single-time sine and double-time sine signals of the carrier signal respectively, and then both paths are filtered by a low-pass filter to obtain two filtered signals, namely a fourth filtered signal L4 and a fifth filtered signal L5.

[0074]

[0075] Where, J0(C) is the zero-order Bessel function;

As a preferred solution, in order to ensure that the filter can retain the main components of the signal, set f cut =2f max or cut =f max +Δf, Δf is to ensure that the filter has enough bandwidth to cover the characteristics of the signal. For example, set the sampling rate to 200kHz, the frequency of the signal to be measured to 500Hz, the amplitude to 2rad, and the carrier signal frequency to 10kHz.
