  1. WDM Fiber Vibrometry Krzysztof M. Abramski

  2. Outline • Introduction • The idea of multipoint fibre vibrometer • Heterodyne signals • Demodulators • Experiment and signal processing • Conclusions

  3. Introduction

  4. Principles of operation

  5. Principles of operation

  6. The low frequency noise spectrum Advantages of using heterodyne technique Homodyne vs. heterodyne detection

  7. Features • Advantages: • Visible radiation, an analyzed point can be easy localized • High resolution, it depends on a source wavelength • Disadvantages: 1. Low output power, less than 1mW 2. Multipoint measurement in the same time is impossible

  8. Motivation for 1550 nm • Relatively low prices of fibre elements, such like: optical isolators, couplers, photodetectors, fibre Bragg gratings etc. • 2. Narrow linewidth laser diodes (DFB, DBR) are available • 3. ”Eye safe” 1550 nm radiation • 4. Unique possibility of weak optical signals amplification by very useful device: Erbium Doped Fibre Amplifier (EDFA) • 5. WDM technique allows to make a multichannel vibrometer

  9. Idea of laser-fiber vibrometer

  10. Multipoint vibrometer

  11. Experimental set-up

  12. Fibre – free space out coupling

  13. EDFA - spectral gain characteristic The best wavelength for single point vibrometer The best area for multipoint vibrometer

  14. WDM characteristics

  15. Optical spectra

  16. Detection of heterodyne signals Balanced photodetector

  17. Demodulation of heterodyne signals l1 – observed wavelength, l0 – source wavelength, c – light velocity, V – light source velocity, l – unit vector in the direction of observation, f0 – frequency of light source For 1550 nm we obtain carrier signal with frequency deviation: For 632,8 nm frequency deviation is:

  20. Conclusions • WDM systems can be particularly useful for multichannel fibre vibrometry. • We obtain heterodyne signals with SNR good enough for FM demodulation. • Our experiment showed practical advantage of the system which can be adapted to many measurement application, particularly can be very flexible. • The signal processing for speed – displacement – acceleration measurement based on LabView environment is under development.
