The invention discloses a
signal acquisition and
processing method of a novel
direct reading spectrometer, and is suitable for characteristics of a periodic spark
light source of the
direct reading spectrometer. The method comprises the steps: firstly, according to a split
optical path structure of the
direct reading spectrometer, determining a space position of a split
optical path corresponding to each
wave band of to-be-detected light, and placing a
light detection module corresponding to each to-be-detected light path
wave band; carrying out
phase inversion treatment of electrical signals outputted by the
light detection modules, then sending to a
signal channel of a phase-locked
amplifier, and carrying out band-pass filtering and amplification, to reduce spurious
noise; sending a periodic
signal having the same frequency as that of a to-be-detected signal into a reference channel, and adjusting the phase position to be the same as that of the to-be-detected signal; carrying out cross-correlation operation of outputted signals of the signal channel and the reference channel, and inhibiting
noise having no correlation with the reference signal; and extracting
low frequency components outputted by a correlator, to obtain the amplitude value and phase position information of the to-be-detected signal. The method can shrink the size of an optical
system, reduces the investment of a
detector, has high detection sensitivity and
low noise, and can improve the resolution of the direct reading spectrometer.
