Abstract
In this paper, we demonstrate an improved dynamic demodulation system for acoustic sensors based on distributed feedback-fiber laser (DFB-FL). The signal is demodulated using the phase-generated carrier (PGC) demodulation technology based on unbalanced Michelson interferometer (MI). An improved PGC demodulation algorithm is introduced, which solves the problems of light intensity disturbance (LID) and phase modulation depth drift in the traditional PGC demodulation algorithm that affect the demodulation results. The acoustic pressure sensitivity test of a packaged DFB-FL acoustic sensor is carried out to evaluate the performances of the demodulation system, a flat acoustic pressure sensitivity and frequency response curve was achieved in the frequency range of 200 Hz~18 kHz, the wavelength-acoustic sensitivity was about -40.22 dB re. pm/Pa. The amplitude changes of demodulation signal with light intensity and modulation depth are also tested, and it shows that the stability of the demodulation system has been significantly improved.
