Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of laser interferometry fiber optic sensing technology, specifically relating to a sweep frequency interferometric ranging Doppler effect correction system, method, program, equipment, and storage medium. Background Technology
[0002] Frequency-sweep interferometric ranging technology has been widely used in aerospace, industrial inspection, and precision motion control due to its advantages such as no ranging ambiguity, high precision, and strong anti-interference capability. In a typical frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) lidar system, the target distance is calculated by obtaining the phase change of the interferometric signal through linear frequency sweeping of the light source. However, under actual operating conditions, minute vibrations of the platform or the object under test can be superimposed on the frequency-sweep ranging signal, generating additional phase perturbations and Doppler frequency shifts. This results in systematic errors at the micrometer or even sub-micrometer level in the ranging results, severely reducing ranging accuracy and stability.
[0003] In existing technologies, single-optical-path swept-frequency interferometry systems struggle to effectively distinguish between the target Doppler displacement and the true distance signal, leading to phase noise introduced by the Doppler effect directly coupling to the ranging results. Regarding error suppression, existing methods primarily suffer from the following technical bottlenecks:
[0004] Vibration-distance coupling interference: In a single-optical-path architecture, the Doppler frequency shift and sweep frequency nonlinear effect caused by target vibration produce cross-modulation, resulting in phase aliasing of the interference signal (CN119148154A). Traditional time-domain filtering methods are difficult to separate high-frequency vibration components, while motion compensation based on POS systems is limited by its positioning accuracy at the hundred-micrometer level (CN116699572A), and cannot meet the sub-micrometer ranging requirements.
[0005] Insufficient real-time monitoring of Doppler displacement: Doppler displacement compensation schemes based on iterative algorithms (such as Kalman filtering) require multi-cycle data modeling (CN116699572A), which has a delay of at least 10ms in dynamic vibration scenarios, making it difficult to track high-frequency vibration changes.
[0006] Noise in industrial environments is difficult to predict: a symmetrical sweep frequency signal is generated based on triangular wave frequency modulation (TFMCW), and vibration velocity is calculated and Doppler effect is compensated by frequency difference (CN116699572A). However, it relies heavily on the assumption that the target vibration velocity is constant, has poor adaptability to time-varying vibrations (such as shock and random vibration), and the compensation residual is more than 10%.
[0007] There is an urgent need in this field for a novel ranging system capable of achieving the following breakthroughs under strong vibration environments: physically isolating vibration and distance signals through innovative optical path design to eliminate cross-modulation interference; establishing a dynamic mapping model for Doppler phase ranging errors to achieve millisecond-level real-time compensation; and simultaneously outputting target vibration displacement characteristics while maintaining sub-micron level accuracy. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the problem of limited measurement accuracy of existing single-path sweep frequency interferometric ranging systems under dynamic vibration environments, and to provide a sweep frequency interferometric ranging Doppler effect correction system, method, program, device and storage medium.

[0017] Step 3: Employ a dynamically optimized carrier phase demodulation algorithm to extract the Doppler displacement phase component in real time, and perform phase compensation on the fundamental frequency signal and second harmonic signal in the modulation signal of the distance measurement sweep frequency light source;
[0018] Acquire the vibration measurement signal output from the second wavelength division multiplexer. Vibration measurement signal The signals are mixed with the phase-compensated fundamental frequency signal and the second harmonic signal respectively, and then filtered out for high-frequency components by a low-pass filter to obtain two non-strictly orthogonal signals. and Calculate the vibration phase ;

[0020] Step 5: Based on the phase of the corrected distance measurement signal The distance between the target object and the fiber optic probe containing the reference surface is calculated based on data from the auxiliary interferometer. .
[0021] Furthermore, in step 1, the carrier phase modulation depth C is set to be near the theoretical optimal value, i.e. This ensures that the amplitudes of the first and second harmonic components of the interference output signal are consistent, suppressing harmonic distortion introduced by the nonlinearity of the Bessel function.

The modulation signal of the vibration measurement sweep frequency light source 21 is a sine wave; the modulation signal of the distance measurement sweep frequency light source 22 is a triangular wave.
[0043] A method for correcting the Doppler effect in frequency sweep interferometric ranging includes the following steps:

The 10MHz crystal oscillator 11 provides an external clock for the arbitrary waveform generator board AWG and the acquisition card DAQ, so that the modulation signal of the light source is synchronized with the signal received by the acquisition card.
[0057] Both the first wavelength division multiplexer 25 and the second wavelength division multiplexer 211 employ 2×1 wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology. Based on wavelength selectivity, they achieve heterogeneous optical signal separation, performing directional coupling and wavelength routing for the optical signals in the 21 band of the vibration measurement swept frequency source and the 22 band of the distance measurement swept frequency source, respectively. This ensures that the two swept frequency beams transmit independently in the interference optical path without aliasing interference.

Through heterogeneous optical path design, wavelength routing is performed on the Doppler displacement signal and the distance measurement signal separately to ensure that the two signals are transmitted independently without cross-interference, and strict timing alignment between signal generation and acquisition is achieved through a synchronous clock module.

After obtaining the vibration phase... By combining a closed-loop feedback mechanism, the ranging phase is corrected in real time to suppress Doppler frequency shift and phase noise caused by the environment.
[0070] By adaptively adjusting carrier signal parameters, the amplitude relationship between the fundamental frequency and harmonic frequencies is balanced, reducing nonlinear distortion during demodulation and improving phase calculation accuracy. Non-uniformly sampled vibration signals are standardized and reconstructed, including phase normalization mapping, unique phase point extraction, and piecewise interpolation, generating uniformly spaced Doppler displacement sequences to ensure real-time correction and stability. Phase unfolding and signal alignment techniques eliminate timing discrepancies between the vibration signal and the ranging signal, and combined with reference interferometer parameters, the corrected phase values are converted into absolute distance output.
