摘要: An ocean current detection device and method based on double-helix and double-core vibration fiber-optic cable, comprises a double-core fiber-optic cable and a φ-OTDR system; the double-core fiber-optic cable comprises a first and a second optical fiber core, provided symmetrically in the double helix structure. The terminate ends of the first and the second optical fiber core are connected, and the start end of the first or the second optical fiber core is connected with the φ-OTDR system. When measuring the ocean current characteristics in the target sea area, the double-core fiber-optic cable is provided underwater to generate vortex-induced vibration. The φ-OTDR system is provided for emitting laser towards the cable, receiving returned double-core vibration signals, extracting vibration characteristics from the double-core vibration signals to determine ocean current characteristics, including ocean current flow velocity and direction, to improve the detection accuracy.

摘要: A method for suppressing coherent and polarization-induced fading by simultaneous monitoring of loss and vibration is provided. By using merely common single-mode sensing fibers, the polarization diversity-based measurement method solves the conflict between Φ-OTDR and COTDR in terms of polarization state. In addition, the method not only achieves a better coherent fading noise suppression effect but also enhances the capability of recognizing small loss events in the monitoring of loss parameters. Meanwhile, the method can suppress the influence of coherent fading on the phase demodulation of Φ-OTDR and reconstruct a vibration signal with high fidelity in the monitoring of perturbation parameters, which can effectively reduce the error rate of external perturbation warning.

摘要: A self-heterodyne phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry (φ-OTDR) system with a free multi-spatial resolution includes a narrow linewidth laser source, a 1×3 fiber-optic coupler, three acousto-optic modulators (AGMs), a 3×1 fiber-optic coupler, two time-delay fibers, an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA), a circulator, a photodetector, an electrical amplifier, three filters, a data acquisition card, a pulse signal generator, and a driver module. A plurality of acousto-optic modulators using the same driver are used to couple probe light with different pulse intervals and different frequency shifts and then inject the probe light into a fiber, such that a self-heterodyne detection structure with a multi-spatial resolution is implemented, which suppressed optical background noise such as coherent fading noise, phase noise introduced by a frequency drift of a light source, and pseudo-random noise (PRN).
