Abstract

Based on the rotational Doppler effect, an orbital angular momentum beam can measure the lateral rotation velocity of an object, which has broad application prospects. However, all existing research focus on the light spot center coinciding with the rotation center, or only with small center offset. This is difficult to ensure in remote detection applications. In this paper, the rotational Doppler frequency shifts under three cases, including no center offset, small center offset and large center offset, are analyzed theoretically. Through theoretical research results, a novel method of measuring rotation velocity is proposed, with the light spot completely deviated out of the rotation center. A laboratory verification experiment shows that this proposed method breaks the limit of center offset of lateral rotation velocity measurement and is of great significance to the remote detection of non-cooperative rotation object.
