The invention relates to an
optical fiber array
neutron position sensitiveness detection
system and method based on
delay encoding. The
delay encoding is performed through pulse
fluorescence signals sent by different lengths of optical fibers and having the effect on a
neutron and a
scintillator, so that the arrival times of pulse
fluorescence signals transmitted by different lengths of optical fibers arriving at a rear-end photoelectric
detector can be different. Therefore, the pulse
fluorescence signals transmitted by the optical fibers can be confirmed by measuring the time differences of
multiple pulse current signals output by the photoelectric
detector and combining an encoding technology, finally the
neutron acting position is determined according to the signals transmitted by the optical fibers, and
time information can be determined according to the
arrival time of the first
pulse current signal and through back-stepping of the obtained neutron acting position. By adopting the method, an original multi-path paralleling
signal reading mode can be changed into a single-channel serial
signal reading mode, and accordingly a neutron acting position and time united measurement
system is remarkably simplified.
