基于SBS矢量特性的单端宽带动态应变测量方法研究

To solve the problems that Brillouin optical time domain analysis (BOTDA) systems with double-ended structure are too complicated and their applications are limited, and to broaden the measurement frequency range, enhance the sensitivity and spatial resolution simultaneously, a new method, which bases on the vector characteristics of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and single-ended structure, is proposed to realize the fast and accurate measurement of dynamic strain along the fiber with wide frequency range, high sensitivity and high spatial resolution. This project aims at putting forward some new methods as follows..Modeling and verification methods for strain dependence of amplitude and phase shift generated by the SBS effect between Rayleigh scattering from the microwave-modulated incident base and pump pulse..Theoretical modeling, evaluating and improving methods for single-ended vector BOTDA system through employing the techniques of double-sideband structure, pulsed pre-pump coding and self-heterodyne detection..Evaluating, improving and amending methods for the influence of fiber dispersion and nonlinear effect on system performance by mathematical modeling..By detecting SBS phase shift and adopting single-ended structure, the system requires no frequency sweep and can realize the nondestructive measurement with low cost. The proposed method can greatly improve signal-to-noise ratio and measurement speed of the system, realize the dynamic strain measurement with wide frequency range, high sensitivity and high spatial resolution by employing double-sideband structure, pulsed pre-pump coding and self-heterodyne detection, which has wide application prospects in the development of geophysics, acoustics and other disciplines, and the fields of online monitoring geological disaster and large engineering structures of electric power, railway.
