[0004] However, conventional cold atom three-axis acceleration measurement instruments require a specially designed stable platform to stabilize the posture of the measurement unit. This requires considering both the stability of the platform operation and the range of the cold atom interferometer, resulting in a complex system structure that is difficult to miniaturize. Summary of the invention

[0013] Optionally, the incident light adjustment mechanism and the reflected light adjustment mechanism are initialized with the orthogonal zero position as the target at the beginning of each measurement cycle. When the incident light adjustment mechanism and the reflected light adjustment mechanism are at the orthogonal zero position, the optical axes of the three incident lights are arranged to intersect orthogonally with the atomic group trapping center as the orthogonal center.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0021] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the optical path composition structure of a cold atom three-axis acceleration measurement system without an attitude stabilization platform provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the present embodiment provides a cold atom triaxial acceleration measurement system without an attitude stabilization platform, comprising three cold atom interference optical paths arranged on a carrier, wherein the three cold atom interference optical paths are arranged with the atomic group trapping center 19 as an orthogonal center and are orthogonally intersecting; Each of the cold atom interference optical paths comprises an incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and a reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12; The incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 adjusts the angle of the incident light in real time with the goal of orthogonally converging the incident light in the three cold atom interference light paths; The reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 adjusts the angle of the reflected light in real time with the goal of making the reflected light coincide with the incident light in the current cold atom interference light path.

[0023] It is understandable that, based on the defects in the background technology, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a cold atom triaxial acceleration measurement system without an attitude stabilization platform. In this system, the atomic groups are cooled and trapped in Figure 1 The atomic group trapping center 19 shown in the figure, three cold atom interference optical paths are used as three orthogonal sensitive axes, and are mutually orthogonal with the atomic group trapping center 19 as the orthogonal center. The three orthogonal sensitive axes are used for time-sharing interference method to achieve acceleration measurement of three orthogonal axes, which guarantees the measurement range and greatly reduces the system complexity of the three-axis acceleration measurement equipment. During the test, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 use the three-axis orthogonality as the control target and adjust the angle of each axis in real time. There is no need for a special stabilization platform to stabilize the posture of the measurement unit, which further reduces the complexity of the system and improves the system's adaptability to dynamic environments.

[0024] In a possible embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, each of the cold atom interference optical paths includes a laser beam expansion and collimation component 1 / 2 / 3, an incident light reflector 4 / 5 / 6, a folding mirror group 7 / 8 / 9, a reflected light reflector 13 / 14 / 15 and a force balance accelerometer (not shown in the figure) arranged in sequence along the optical axis. For example, the first cold atom interference optical path includes a laser beam expansion and collimation component 1, an incident light reflector 6, a folding mirror group 8, a reflected light reflector 13 and a first force balance accelerometer arranged in sequence along the optical axis; the second cold atom interference optical path includes a laser beam expansion and collimation component 2, an incident light reflector 5, a folding mirror group 9, a reflected light reflector 15 and a second force balance accelerometer arranged in sequence along the optical axis; the third cold atom interference optical path includes a laser beam expansion and collimation component 3, an incident light reflector 4, a folding mirror group 7, a reflected light reflector 14 and a third force balance accelerometer arranged in sequence along the optical axis. Wherein: The laser beam expansion and collimation components 1 / 2 / 3 are used to adjust the diameter, collimation and polarization state of the input laser in turn to obtain incident light that can switch between linear polarization and circular polarization; for example, the spot diameter of the laser beam is expanded, the collimation of the laser is improved, and the switching of circular polarization and linear polarization of the laser beam is completed to obtain incident light that can switch between linear polarization and circular polarization after beam expansion and collimation. During the working process, the incident light switches between the circular polarization mode and the linear polarization mode to achieve the cooling and interference process.

[0025] The incident light reflectors 4 / 5 / 6 are fixedly connected to the incident light adjustment mechanisms 16 / 17 / 18 in a one-to-one correspondence, and are used to reflect the incident light output by the laser beam expansion and collimation components 1 / 2 / 3 to adjust the optical axis angle of the incident light, and then pass through the folding mirror group 7 / 8 / 9 to make the three incident light beams in the three optical paths orthogonal and aligned with the atomic group trapping center 19; The folding mirror group 7 / 8 / 9 is used to make the incident light converge toward the atomic group trapping center 19, so that the incident light always converges and passes through the atomic group trapping center 19; The reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15 are fixedly connected to the reflected light adjustment mechanisms 10 / 11 / 12 in a one-to-one correspondence. The reflected light adjustment mechanisms 10 / 11 / 12 adjust the reflection angles of the reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15. The reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15 are used to reflect incident light passing through the atomic cluster. The reflected light output by the reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15 overlaps with the incident light, so that the obtained reflected light passes through the atomic cluster trapping center 19 again, thereby further realizing the miniaturization of the system. The three force balance accelerometers are integrated and arranged one by one on the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12, and are used to collect the force balance acceleration measurement data of each axis in real time.

[0026] In a possible embodiment, the system also includes a photodetector (not shown in the figure), which is arranged adjacent to the atomic cluster to be measured, and the photodetector does not interfere with the three cold atom interference light paths. The photodetector is used to detect the atomic fluorescence signal of the atomic cluster and perform atomic state population distribution calculations to obtain three-axis atomic interference information.

[0027] It is understandable that as a traditional acceleration measurement tool, the force balance accelerometer can continuously output force balance acceleration measurement data, but this measurement data has drift, so the accuracy needs to be improved. When atomic interference is performed, the three-axis atomic interference information, force balance acceleration measurement data and other parameters are combined for comprehensive solution to obtain the three-axis acceleration measurement data after error elimination, and the error value can also be calculated for correction of the force balance accelerometer. When atomic interference is not performed, the acceleration measurement data output by the corrected force balance accelerometer is used as the three-axis acceleration measurement data, which can effectively prevent the measurement dead zone problem.

[0028] In a possible embodiment, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and / or the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 comprises an adjustment platform driven by a motor, for example, an adjustment platform driven by a voice coil motor.

[0029] It can be understood that the voice coil motor is a motor based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, which has the advantages of simple structure, easy control, fast response speed and high positioning accuracy. It can achieve fast response and high-precision control of the incident light reflector 4 / 5 / 6 and the reflected light reflector 13 / 14 / 15 to ensure the accuracy of the optical path adjustment.

[0030] In a possible embodiment, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 are initialized with the orthogonal zero position as the target at the beginning of each measurement cycle. When the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 are at the orthogonal zero position, the three incident light axes are arranged to be orthogonally intersected with the atomic group trapping center 19 as the orthogonal center. Initializing the system in each measurement cycle so that the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 return to the orthogonal zero position is beneficial to improving the detection accuracy of the system.

[0031] In a possible embodiment, the system further includes a posture detection unit ( Figure 1 (not shown), the posture detection unit detects real-time posture information of the carrier; The incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 adjusts the angle of the incident light in real time according to the real-time posture information of the carrier, with the orthogonal intersection of the incident light in the three cold atom interference light paths as the goal; according to the real-time posture information of the carrier, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 is converted to the same coordinate system as the carrier to adjust the angle of the incident light, thereby improving the adjustment accuracy; The reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 adjusts the angle of the reflected light in real time according to the real-time posture information of the carrier and takes the coincidence of the reflected light and the incident light in the current cold atom interference light path as the goal, so that the reflected light obtained by the reflected light reflector 13 / 14 / 15 returns along the original path and passes through the atomic group trapping center 19 again.

[0032] In a possible embodiment, the system also includes a joint solution module, which is used to jointly solve the real-time posture information of the carrier, the three-axis atomic interference information and the force balance acceleration measurement data to obtain the three-axis acceleration measurement data and the force balance accelerometer bias estimation value.

[0033] Based on the above-mentioned system embodiments, this embodiment also provides a cold atom three-axis acceleration measurement method without an attitude stabilization platform. Figure 2 The figure shows a flow chart of the measurement method of this embodiment. This embodiment provides a cold atom triaxial acceleration measurement method without an attitude stabilization platform, including: (1) At the beginning of a single measurement cycle, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 are initialized with the orthogonal zero position as the target, so that the optical axes of the three cold atom interference light paths are set with the atomic group trapping center 19 as the orthogonal center and are orthogonally intersecting; (2) Continuously collect force balance acceleration measurement data and real-time attitude information of the carrier; (3) In a single measurement cycle, the three-axis time-sharing interferometry method is used to measure the three-axis atomic interference data when the three cold atom interference light paths act on the cold atom cluster in sequence; Figure 2 As shown, for example: Control the first atomic group cooling and trapping, and perform interference measurement on the first cold atom interference optical path (i.e., the first measurement axis) to obtain the first-axis atomic interference data; Control the cooling and trapping of the second atomic group, and perform interference measurement on the second cold atom interference optical path (i.e., the second measurement axis) to obtain the second-axis atomic interference data; Control the cooling and trapping of the third atomic group, and perform interference measurement on the third cold atom interference optical path (i.e., the third measurement axis) to obtain the third-axis atomic interference data; (4) According to the real-time posture information of the carrier, the angles of the three axes are adjusted in real time with the three axes orthogonal as the goal; (5) The three-axis atomic interference information, the real-time attitude information of the carrier and the force balance acceleration measurement data are jointly solved and filtered to obtain the three-axis acceleration measurement data and the force balance accelerometer bias estimation value, and then the force balance accelerometer is calibrated according to the force balance accelerometer bias estimation value.

[0034] (6) Repeat steps (1) to (5).

[0035] It is understandable that, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 As shown, the cold atom three-axis acceleration measurement method without an attitude stabilization platform adopts a time-sharing interference method of three orthogonal sensitive axes, and performs a measurement cycle in the order of first atomic group trapped cooling, measurement axis 1 interference measurement, atomic group trapped cooling, measurement axis 2 interference measurement, atomic group trapped cooling, and measurement axis 3 interference measurement, and each cycle is a measurement cycle. During a single cycle, the three-axis atomic interference information and the force balance accelerometer measurement information of the measurement cycle are converted to the same coordinate system according to the real-time attitude information of the carrier for joint data solution and filtering, and the drift-eliminating three-axis acceleration signal measurement value is output, and the force balance accelerometer bias estimation acquisition is completed synchronously, and the force balance accelerometer can be calibrated by the force balance accelerometer bias estimation value. After completing a single measurement process, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 are initialized at the beginning of each measurement cycle to return to the orthogonal zero position. During the measurement process, the incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 take the orthogonal zero position initialized at the beginning of the cycle as the target, and adjust the angles of the incident light reflectors 4 / 5 / 6 and the reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15 in real time according to the real-time posture information of the outside world (carrier) so that the three pairs of orthogonal intersecting light beams remain overlapped.

[0036] The cold atom three-axis acceleration measurement system and method without an attitude stabilization platform provided in the embodiments of the present invention have the following advantages: (1) No stabilization platform is required to stabilize the attitude of the measurement unit. The three orthogonal sensitive axes are interferometrically measured to achieve acceleration measurement on three orthogonal axes, which greatly reduces the system complexity of the three-axis acceleration measurement equipment and improves the system's adaptability to dynamic environments.

[0037] (2) Three folding mirror groups are used to ensure that the beam always passes through the atomic cluster trapping center 19 during the beam stabilization process, so that the atomic cluster trapping cooling and interference process can be completed with a beam of smaller radius, thereby improving the robustness of the system.

[0038] (3) The incident light adjustment mechanism 16 / 17 / 18 and the reflected light adjustment mechanism 10 / 11 / 12 return to the orthogonal zero position at the beginning of each measurement cycle, and take the orthogonal zero position initialized at the beginning of the cycle as the target in each measurement cycle. According to the external posture information, the angles of the incident light reflectors 4 / 5 / 6 and the reflected light reflectors 13 / 14 / 15 are adjusted in real time to keep the three pairs of orthogonal light beams overlapped, reduce the actual stroke of the adjustment mechanism, solve the problem of insufficient stroke of the adjustment mechanism in a dynamic measurement environment, and improve the system's adaptability to dynamic environments.

[0039] It should be noted that in the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis, and for parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
