Problems solved by technology

Although THD is an effective evaluation method for the linearity of phase demodulation, this method requires that the phase to be demodulated must be a single-frequency sinusoidal signal. Generally, it can only be evaluated by offline simulation. For the actual interference system with arbitrary changes in the phase to be measured, THD cannot be realized real-time assessment
THD is only a proportional coefficient, and the nonlinear error caused by phase demodulation cannot be directly calculated

Embodiment Construction

[0016] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] The implementation process of the present invention is as follows:

[0018] (1) The interference fringes generated by the laser interferometer are detected by the photodetector, and the PGC arctangent demodulation is performed on the interference signal detected by the photodetector, and the demodulation phase is It is expanded by Fourier and simplified to get:

[0019]

[0020] Among them, ν is the proportional coefficient of the quadrature signal amplitude, and t represents time;

[0021] It can be seen that when ν≠1, the actual phase to be measured of the interferometer A non-linear error with a phase period of π is superimposed on and the actual phase to be measured The size of the corresponding nonlinear error is only related to the degree of deviation between the value of ν and 1.

[0022] (2) Use another photodetector to dete...

Abstract

The invention discloses a real-time calculation method of a nonlinear error in arc tangent demodulation of a phase-generated carrier (PGC). Interference fringes produced by a laser interferometer aresimultaneously detected by two photoelectric detectors; and the detection centers of the two photoelectric detectors are spaced at a distance of a one-quarter-cycle interference fringe. When a measuring lens in the interferometer is moved, the to-be-measured phase of the interferometer is changed continuously; PGC demodulation is carried out on interference signals detected by the two photoelectric detectors to obtain demodulation phase values; difference processing is carried out on the demodulation phase values to obtain a phase difference; detection is carried out in real time and a peak-to-peak value of a nonlinear item of the phase difference is obtained and a non-linear error corresponding to the demodulation phase is calculated based on the peak-to-peak value. According to the invention, the non-linear error caused by the arc tangent demodulation of the PGC can be evaluated in real time. Compared with the traditional total harmonic distortion method, the real-time calculation method has the following advantages: the method is realized simply, the evaluation result is visual, and the real-time performance is good. And the method can be applied to evaluation of phase modulation non-linear errors of an interference-type optical fiber sensor or a self-mixing interferometer.
