[0002] As a core device in the fields of quantum communication and weak light detection, the lifetime evaluation of a single photon detector is crucial to the reliability of a system. In the prior art, the lifetime evaluation is mostly dependent on a single performance parameter (such as quantum efficiency decay) or a static model, and it is difficult to reflect the synergistic degradation effect of multiple parameters.

[0003] Although the prior art introduces the correlation of working parameters such as voltage and temperature, it does not dynamically track the performance changes in the time sequence dimension, resulting in that the evaluation results lag behind the actual degradation state. At the same time, the prior art lacks accurate identification of key influencing parameters, and does not verify and optimize the parameter weights through confidence, so it is difficult to adapt to the lifetime prediction requirements of the detector under complex working conditions, and has problems such as low evaluation accuracy and poor adaptability.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0036] In this document, the term "comprising" is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or device including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or device.

[0037] Embodiment one

[0038] The life evaluation of single photon detector needs to comprehensively consider the dynamic change of performance parameters with time, but the existing technology mostly adopts static evaluation or single parameter analysis, it is difficult to reflect the coordinated degradation law of multiple parameters, and lacks the verification mechanism of prediction reliability, resulting in large deviation of the evaluation result from the actual life. The embodiment sets three time sequence nodes, constructs a complete system of parameter collection, performance prediction, target identification, confidence calculation and life evaluation, realizes dynamic life evaluation of multiple parameter fusion, effectively improves the prediction accuracy, and solves the problems of poor adaptability and insufficient reliability of the existing technology.

[0039] As shown in Figure 1 The embodiment discloses a single photon detector multi-parameter adaptive life evaluation system, which comprises:

[0040] A parameter collection module is configured to collect the working parameters and the corresponding actual performance parameters of the single photon detector at a first time node, a second time node subsequent to the first time node, and a third time node subsequent to the second time node. In the embodiment, the working parameters can include voltage and temperature, and the performance parameters can include one or more of dark count rate, detection efficiency, after-pulse probability, and quantum efficiency decay.

[0041] A prediction model module is configured to have an associated model of the working parameters and the performance parameters, and is configured to predict the performance parameters at the second time node based on the working parameters and the actual performance parameters at the first time node through the associated model, and to predict the performance parameters at the third time node based on the working parameters and the actual performance parameters at the second time node through the associated model. It should be noted that in the embodiment, the associated model can be an existing time sequence degradation model.

[0042] A target parameter identification module is configured to compare the actual performance parameters at the second time node with the predicted performance parameters at the second time node, calculate the influence weight of each performance parameter on the prediction difference, and determine at least one performance parameter meeting a preset condition as a target performance parameter.

[0043] A confidence calculation module is configured to calculate the confidence of the target performance parameter based on the difference between the actual performance parameters at the third time node and the predicted performance parameters at the third time node.

[0044] A life evaluation module is configured to obtain a final life prediction result based on the confidence of the target performance parameter, the working parameters at the third time node, and the actual performance parameters.

[0045] The prediction model of performance parameters often ignores the influence of working parameter changes and device individual differences, resulting in a large deviation between the prediction result and the actual value. By introducing the working parameter change, the performance degradation rate and the degradation coefficient related to the device type, the prediction of performance parameters is more in line with the actual degradation characteristics of the detector, providing more accurate basic data for subsequent target parameter identification and life assessment, and improving the adaptability and prediction accuracy of the model.

[0046] Specifically, when predicting the performance parameters at the second time node and the third time node, the prediction model module is based on the working parameter change, the actual performance parameter degradation rate and the preset parameter degradation coefficient at the previous time node, and the parameter degradation coefficient is determined based on the device type of the single-photon detector.

[0047] Due to the lack of clear screening criteria, there are problems of missing or redundant key parameters in identifying key parameters affecting the life, which affects the evaluation efficiency. The embodiment accurately locates the parameters that contribute most to the prediction difference by the standard with the largest influence weight, and is compatible with the scene of multiple parallel maximum weight parameters, ensuring that the key parameters are not missed, and improving the scientificity and comprehensiveness of target parameter identification.

[0048] Specifically, the preset conditions in the target parameter identification module include:

[0049] The target performance parameter is at least one of the performance parameters with the largest influence weight on the prediction difference. When there are multiple performance parameters with the same influence weight and the maximum value, the multiple performance parameters are determined as the target performance parameters.

[0050] The influence weight of the performance parameter on the prediction difference lacks a quantitative calculation method, resulting in strong subjectivity of target parameter identification. The embodiment quantifies the influence weight by the contribution rate algorithm, reflects the contribution of a single parameter to the overall difference by the prediction deviation proportion, makes the weight calculation objective and quantifiable, avoids the error of human judgment, and further improves the accuracy and reliability of target performance parameter identification.

[0051] Specifically, the influence weight is determined by the contribution rate of a performance parameter, and the contribution rate is the ratio of the absolute value of the prediction deviation of the performance parameter to the sum of the absolute values of the prediction deviations of all performance parameters.

[0052] Due to the lack of effective evaluation of the reliability of the target parameter, the life prediction result based on the unreliable parameter has the problem of low credibility. The embodiment quantifies the prediction reliability of the target parameter at the third time node by comparing the prediction deviation with the actual value, provides an objective index for the subsequent correction of life assessment, and solves the problem of unknown effectiveness of the target parameter.

[0053] Specifically, when the confidence calculation module calculates the confidence of the target performance parameter, the confidence is determined based on the predicted deviation absolute value of the target performance parameter corresponding to the third time node and the actual value of the target performance parameter at the third time node.

[0054] Further, in the prior art, when predicting the life, the performance parameter is directly extrapolated to the failure threshold, without considering the reliability difference of the prediction result, resulting in limited evaluation accuracy. The two-step method of extrapolating time and confidence correction in the embodiment allows the target parameter with high confidence to have a greater impact on the final result, and the low-confidence parameter is weakened, so that the life prediction result is more consistent with the actual degradation law, and the evaluation accuracy is significantly improved.

[0055] Specifically, when the life evaluation module obtains the final life prediction result, the life prediction result includes:

[0056] Based on the actual performance parameters and working parameters at the third time node, the time when each performance parameter reaches the preset failure threshold is extrapolated through an association model; in the embodiment, the preset failure threshold is the critical value of the performance parameter of the single-photon detector in a typical application scenario, such as the critical value of the dark count rate, the critical value of the detection efficiency, the critical value of the after-pulse probability, and the critical value of the quantum efficiency decay, and the critical value can be dynamically adjusted according to the accuracy requirement of the actual application scenario.

[0057] The extrapolated time is corrected based on the confidence of each target performance parameter, and the confidence is negatively correlated with the correction amplitude.

[0058] In actual application, there is a problem of lacking an effective judgment standard for the confidence of the performance parameter, which may include low-reliability parameters in the evaluation, interfering with the accuracy of the result. The threshold setting module is added in the embodiment to pre-set the confidence threshold as the judgment standard for the effectiveness of the parameter, so that reliable performance parameters can be selected to avoid the interference of low-confidence parameters, and quality guarantee is provided for subsequent evaluation.

[0059] Specifically, the system further includes a threshold setting module configured to pre-set a confidence threshold, and the confidence threshold is a critical value for judging whether the confidence of the performance parameter is effective.

[0060] Further, since most confidence analysis only focuses on the size of the confidence of the target parameter, potential high-reliability parameters in other performance parameters are ignored, resulting in incomplete evaluation dimensions. The confidence of all performance parameters is calculated and compared with the threshold in the embodiment to form a set of effective performance parameters, which expands the parameter range of the evaluation, ensures that high-reliability parameters are considered, and improves the comprehensiveness and robustness of the life evaluation.

[0061] Specifically, the confidence calculation module is further configured to calculate the confidence of all performance parameters, compare the confidence of each performance parameter with a confidence threshold, and screen out performance parameters with a confidence greater than or equal to the confidence threshold to obtain an effective performance parameter set.

[0062] Since the weights of the performance parameters are generally fixed and unchanged, the differences in reliability are not reflected, resulting in biased evaluation results for unreliable parameters. In this embodiment, the weight correction unit dynamically adjusts the weights based on the confidence of the effective parameters, and the higher the confidence, the greater the weight, so that reliable parameters dominate in the evaluation, further optimizing the rationality and accuracy of the life prediction.

[0063] Specifically, the life evaluation module further includes a weight correction unit configured to correct the original weight of each performance parameter in the life evaluation based on the confidence of each performance parameter in the effective performance parameter set; wherein the confidence is positively correlated with the corrected weight; and the life evaluation module obtains a final life prediction result based on the corrected weight, the working parameters at the third time node, and the actual performance parameters.

[0072] In summary, the single-photon detector multi-parameter adaptive life evaluation system and method of the present embodiment significantly improves the accuracy and reliability of single-photon detector life evaluation through time-series parameter acquisition and multi-node performance prediction, combined with target parameter identification, confidence verification and weight dynamic correction.
