Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of fiber Bragg gratings, and more specifically, to a method and system for locating sound sources in distributed fiber Bragg gratings based on weak measurement technology. Background Technology

[0002] Microphone array-based sound source localization technology boasts advantages such as flexible beam control, high spatial resolution, and strong anti-interference capabilities. However, the sensor arrays are typically composed of traditional condenser and dynamic microphones, making them difficult to apply in harsh environments with strong electromagnetic interference. Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) offer significant advantages for sound source localization in certain environments, but their high sensor cost, complex optical path structure, and failure to fully utilize the high capacity of fiber optic sensing systems hinder the construction of large-scale sensor arrays. Currently, most fiber optic sensing localization methods require more measurement points and a larger number of gratings to achieve higher accuracy, necessitating the use of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, which introduce noise and significant power loss. Based on these reasons, this paper considers how to achieve higher accuracy sound localization without optical power amplification.

[0003] Patent document CN113176536A discloses a step-by-step focusing algorithm for rapid and accurate localization of noise sources. The first step involves using M sound pressure sensors to form a measurement array W on a measurement surface, measuring the sound pressure data at each point of the array W. The second step involves a first focusing process, dividing the focusing surface into a regular grid, where each cell is a square. The intersection of the grid points is the focal point of the sound source, and the distance between adjacent intersection points is defined as 'd', i.e., the interval between two adjacent focal points is 'd'. The focusing algorithm identifies a large area containing the sound source. The third step involves a second focusing process, precisely dividing the large area identified in the second step and repeating the focusing algorithm from the previous step to perform a second precise localization, thus pinpointing the exact location of the sound source. However, the technical means employed in this patent differ from those of the present invention, and the patent cannot completely solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0079] Light from the light source undergoes pre-selection, splitting into |H> light and |V> light. The |H> light passes through the AOM and delay fiber, then is sequentially reflected by weak reflection elements before reaching the fiber coupler. The |V> light is first reflected by weak reflection elements, then passes through the delay fiber and AOM before reaching the fiber coupler. The AOM is set to Ω... AOM Angular frequency modulation, when |H> light passes through, Ω AOM =Ω0+kt, when |V> the light passes through, Ω AOM=0; |H> light and |V> light travel the same optical path, therefore they arrive at the fiber coupler simultaneously. In a weakly reflective array, the phase delay of the |H> light reflected by the i-th reflector is expressed as... The phase of light propagating along the same path in opposite directions can be represented as: Phase difference between two beams Where L a For the optical path of the delay fiber, L i Let ν be the optical path from the 2×1 fiber beam splitter to the i-th weakly reflecting element, and ω be the speed of light in the fiber. c Let L be the center angular frequency of the light source. Due to the effect of the delay fiber, light with |V> arrives at the weak reflection element first, and light with |H> arrives at the weak reflection element later, with a time difference of τ = L. a / ν, in the time difference τ between the arrival of |V> light and |H> light at the i-th weak reflection element, the position of the i-th weak reflection element changes from L i Change to L i +ΔL,|H> the light phase changes Phase difference is This refers to φ(t) introduced by the weak reflector array during the interaction process.

[0080] Module M2.3: After the light passes through the beam splitter, the post-selection state |f> is modulated to be within a preset orthogonal range to the pre-selection state. The post-selection angle of post-selection process one is set to ε, and the post-selection angle of post-selection process two is set to -ε.

Therefore, the light intensity received by photodetector one is... The light intensity received by photodetector 2 is

[0081] Specifically, in module M3, the acoustic signal can be demodulated based on the phase change of the weak reflection element, and the intensity of the light received by photodetector one and photodetector two can be used to obtain... By using Fourier transform, vibration information is demodulated from the phase change. Since each weakly reflecting element is at a different distance from the sound source, and due to the sound source attenuation effect, the volume of the sound received by each weakly reflecting element from the sound source is also different. α i (i = 1, 2, 3…) represents the attenuation coefficient from the sound source to the i-th weak reflection element, and the sound source signal is x(t).

[0082] According to the photoelastic effect, as mentioned above, during the time difference τ between the arrival of |V> light and |H> light at the i-th weakly reflective element, the position of the i-th weakly reflective element changes from L... i Change to L i +ΔL, where ΔL=γL i-1,i α i [x(t-τ)-x(t)], where γ is the effective photoelastic coefficient, and L i-1,i Let be the distance between the (i-1)th weak reflection primitive and the ith weak reflection primitive. Frequency can be obtained 2ΔLkt / υ is very small and can be ignored. The derivation shows that the vibration ΔL originates from the phase transition Δθ. i Extracted from C i It has no effect on vibration detection; substituting ΔL yields... right After performing a Fast Fourier Transform, the frequency term f can be obtained. i Phase term θ i and reflectivity r i By using weak measurement techniques, the reflectivity r was amplified. i Each weakly reflective primitive has a different L. i Therefore, frequency Corresponding to each weak reflection primitive, signals from different weak reflection primitives can be separated, thereby obtaining θ corresponding to each weak reflection primitive. i .

[0083] Specifically, in module M4, via θ i The attenuation coefficient α corresponding to each weak reflection element is obtained. i Based on the correspondence between sound field attenuation and distance, the distance between each weak reflection element and the sound source is obtained. The spatial positioning of the sound source is obtained through geometric calculation, thereby improving the positioning accuracy.
