    Aiming at the high cost and inconvenient operation of the wavelength demodulation fiber Bragg grating(FBG) anemometer system, an intensity interrogated optical fiber thermal anemometer based on the chirp effect of FBG is proposed. After using a pump laser to heat the 15 mm FBG non-uniformly, it produces a noticeable chirp effect. Under the airflow, the chirp effect of the chirped FBG weakens as its temperature gradient decreases, resulting in reflected optical power decline. Based on this principle, the FBG wind speed measurement with intensity demodulation is successfully realized. The experimental results show that the measurement range of the anemometer is 0~11 m/s, and the sensitivity is up to -28.60 μW/(m·s-1) when the wind speed is 0.1 m/s. In addition, the dynamic response time is less than 1 s (about 0.3 s for low to high wind speed, and 0.9 s for high to low wind speed).

    With the development of smart grid technology, the demand for current parameter monitoring is increasing. This paper proposes a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) current sensor based on magnetostrictive effect. The FBG is completely fixed on the magnetostrictive material, so that it can sense the magnetic field generated by the energized solenoid to achieve current sensing. By monitoring the wavelength change of FBG, it can be seen that the FBG current sensor can achieve the maximum Bragg wavelength drift of 0.773 nm in the current range of 0~5 A, and the sensing sensitivity is as high as 0.184 nm/A.

    Aiming at the problems that the backscattered light of the temperature signal is weak, easy to be submerged under the system noise, and the overall cost of the system is high and the volume is large in the distributed temperature sensing(DTS) based on Raman scattering, an embedded DTS using STM32F407 module is proposed. The cumulative average algorithm, wavelet threshold noise reduction algorithm and polynomial interpolation algorithm are used in the system to reduce the influence of noise, improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the system and eliminate the dispersion effect of light. The experimental results show that the overall temperature demodulation fluctuation range of the system decreases from 3.3~5.9 ℃ to 0.3~0.8 ℃; in a multimode fiber about 5 km long, the temperature is 29 ℃, 45 ℃, 60 ℃ and 80 ℃ respectively, the demodulation temperature fluctuation range of the system is within ±1 ℃, and the data processing time of the system is about 60 ms.*通信作者: 杨军(1982-), 男, 工学硕士, 高级工程师, 主要研究方向为光纤传感技术。

    In order to analyze the influence of related factors of demodulation error in Brillouin optical time-domain reflectometry/Brillouin optical time domain analysis(BOTDR/BOTDA), firstly, the noisy Brillouin spectra with different parameter values is simulated generated based on the Lorentzian profile. Then the Brillouin frequency shift error in the different conditions is calculated by use of the least-squares fitting method based on the Lorentzian profile. The results reveal that when the number of sweeps is fixed, the frequency scanning range is not recommended to be too large or too small, and the recommended frequency sweep range is 1.2ΔvB. When the frequency sweep range is constant, the Brillouin frequency shift error decreases exponentially with increasing number of frequency sweep. The Brillouin frequency shift error decreases exponentially with increasing signal-to-noise ratio. When the ratio of frequency sweep range to linewidth and the number of frequency sweep are constant, the Brillouin frequency shift error increases approximately in direct proportion with the increase of Brillouin linewidth.

    In order to provide a theoretical basis for the measurement deviation of reflective all fiber current transformer(optical CT), the influence mechanism of the main optical components of reflective optical CT system on the system response is studied, and the influence of the non ideality of the main optical components of optical CT on the accuracy of current measurement is analyzed. Firstly, the main devices and mathematical models of the system are described by Jones matrix, and the expression of the output light of the system and the measured value of the injection current of the system after demodulation and detection are given. Then, based on the system mathematical model, the effects of the linear birefringence and circular birefringence of the sensing fiber and the linear birefringence of the polarization maintaining fiber on the injection current measurement of optical CT are analyzed respectively. The results show that the linear birefringence deviation of sensing fiber has the most prominent influence on the measurement accuracy of optical CT injection current. The circular birefringence of sensing fiber can effectively suppress the influence of linear birefringence of sensing fiber on the measurement accuracy of optical CT injection current.

    In order to eliminate the influence of light intensity disturbance and phase modulation depth on the phase generated carrier(PGC) demodulation, this paper proposes a phase demodulation algorithm based on mixing and filtering and phase division differential which is called PGC demodulation improved algorithm. The algorithm makes the demodulated signal without any variables by filtering and differential division and differential and integration operation. PGC demodulation improved algorithm is theoretically analyzed and deduced, and the simulation model is constructed by using Labview platform to verify the advantages of the proposed algorithm over traditional algorithm. A demodulation system based on Michelson interference is built for experimental verification. The experimental results show that the signal to be measured demodulated by the improved PGC demodulation algorithm will not produce harmonic distortion under different phase modulation depth. In the case of different light intensities, the demodulated signal amplitude remains the same.

    In order to improve the performance of strain measurement in complex electromagnetic environment, a novel strain measurement method is proposed based on optoelectronic oscillator(OEO) and high-birefringence(Hi-Bi) fiber. The strain will cause the change of phase difference between the two orthogonal polarized lights transmitted on the fast and slow axes of the Hi-Bi fiber, By properly controlling the polarization state of the light wave sent into the Mach-Zehnder modulator, the phase change is mapped to the frequency change of the OEO oscillating microwave signal. Therefore, the demodulation of strain is achieved by monitoring the frequency change. Theoretical analysis and experiment results show that the frequency of the oscillating microwave signal generated by OEO has a linear relationship with strain, and sensitivity of the proposed measurement method is -369.3 Hz/με.
