摘要

摘要: 近年来, 基于受激布里渊散射的分布式光纤传感技术已广泛应用于土木结构健康监测、灾害预警、国防安全等诸多领域, 振动等动态参量的实时传感和精准检测已成为备受瞩目的研究热点. 本文提出一种基于增益开关调制和双斜坡辅助的混沌布里渊光相关域分析传感技术, 实现高精度、大范围动态应变监测. 首先, 理论分析了单斜坡辅助系统中混沌激光固有的时延特征和功率随机波动特性对测量精度的影响和限制; 然后, 利用增益开关调制产生48.6 dB的高消光比脉冲, 使得混沌信号时延旁瓣和非零基底诱发的噪声场被大幅抑制, 仿真结果表明声波场信噪比提升3.31 dB, 实验测得混沌布里渊增益谱信号背景噪声比提升1倍, 动态应变测量精度由 ± 40.2 με提高至 ± 23.1 με; 最后, 利用双斜坡辅助技术, 消除混沌激光固有功率波动的影响, 动态应变测量精度进一步提升至 ± 8.1 με, 系统稳定性良好, 且动态范围仍保持800 με, 为现代传感网络的高精度、大范围动态应变监测提供了一种新的解决方案.

Abstract: Nowadays, distributed dynamic sensing technology based on stimulated Brillouin scattering has been widely employed in civil structure health monitoring, disaster warning, national defense, etc. In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel Brillouin optical correlation-domain analysis based-on gain-switch modulation and dual-slope assisted method for achieving high-accuracy large-range dynamic strain measurement. In single-slope assisted chaotic Brillouin sensing, the measurement accuracy of dynamic strain is deteriorated by the inherent characteristics of time delay signature and power stochastic fluctuations. First, the mechanism behind the acoustic field deterioration and principle of background noise suppression are analyzed theoretically. Then, the chaotic continuous pump light is modulated into pulsed light with a higher extinct ratio of 48.6 dB, where the electro-optical modulator is replaced by a gain switch. And thus, the noise peaks, induced by the secondary peaks and irregular basal oscillations of chaotic auto-correlation curve, are greatly restrained. Comparing with the electro-optical modulator-based system, the signal-to-noise ratio of stimulated Brillouin acoustic field is increased by 3.31 dB in simulation and the signal-to-background ratio of Brillouin gain spectrum is doubled in experiment. Consequently, the measurement accuracy of dynamic strain is improved from ± 40.2 με to ± 23.1 με and the relative error decreases from ± 5.0% to ± 2.9% in single-slope assisted system based-on gain switch modulation. In addition, a dual-slope assisted method is inspired to eliminate the detrimental effect caused by the intrinsic power fluctuations of chaotic laser. A verification experiment is pre-conducted that the dynamic strain could be correctly interrogated although a wide range pump power variation has been manually applied. The measurement accuracy is ultimately enhanced to ± 8.1 με and the relative error is ± 1% correspondingly, implying a higher stability. The dynamic range of this proposed system is retained at 800 με, which is approximately 5 times as large as the dynamic range of the traditional dual-slope assisted configurations. The 4-cm spatial resolution along 30-m FUT is also investigated and consistent with the result obtained previously. A larger measurement range and a higher vibration frequency would be further explored by using the multi-slope assisted method and piezoelectric ceramic oscillator respectively. The superior slope-assisted chaotic Brillouin optical correlation-domain analysis will provide a new solution for the accurate positioning and real-time monitoring of dynamic parameters in modern industry.
