Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, domestic optical fiber distributed monitoring is mainly used in the perimeter security field to determine the disturbance location, such as Φ-OTDR (Phase-Optical Time Domain Reflectometer), but the interference of back Rayleigh scattered light within a unit pulse cannot solve the problem. Calling out the corresponding phase information can only demodulate the intensity change information caused by the phase change, and cannot demodulate the phase information of the disturbance signal at the disturbance position

Embodiment 1

[0017] An optical fiber distributed acoustic wave monitoring system, which uses the narrow linewidth and frequency-modulated laser output from the frequency-modulated DFB fiber laser as the laser light source of the fiber-optic distributed acoustic wave monitoring system, characterized in that the laser output from the frequency-modulated DFB fiber laser enters the The acousto-optic modulator modulates the continuous laser into a pulsed laser with a pulse width of τ and a period of T through the acousto-optic modulator.

Embodiment 3

[0048] The same points between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 will not be repeated here, such as Figure 9 As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that the interference formation method of interfering the back-Rayleigh scattering signals between different unit lengths on a sensing fiber by using an interferometer is different. The seventh coupler and the time-delay fiber are the main components to form a time-delay loop Sagnac interferometer to interfere the back-Rayleigh scattering signals between different unit lengths.

[0049] The use of the seventh coupler and the delay fiber as the main components to form a delay ring Sagnac interferometer to interfere the back-Rayleigh scattering signals between different unit lengths refers to the back-Rayleigh output of the second optical filter.

Abstract

Provided is an optical fiber distributed type sound wave monitor system. Narrow-linewidth frequency-modulated lasers output by a frequency modulation DFB fiber laser are used as the light source of the optical fiber distributed type sound wave monitor system, the lasers output by the frequency modulation DFB fiber laser enter an acoustic optical modulator and are modulated to be pulse lasers through the acoustic optical modulator, the pulse lasers pass through a first optical amplifier and a first optical filter and then enter a second circulator and sensor fibers, the pulse lasers per unit can emit rayleigh scattering light within the range of the passed sensor fibers per unit length, and signals output by the second circulator pass through a second optical amplifier to enter a second optical filter and output backscattering rayleigh signals. The backscattering rayleigh signals between different unit lengths on one sensor fiber are interfered with the method of an interferometer, the interfered signals pass through electrical signals output by a second photoelectric detector and enter the optical fiber distributed type sound wave monitor demodulation system though a phase carrier demodulation module, and the change analysis of the phases of the sensor signals at corresponding positions is achieved.
