Wide dynamic guided cannonballs need to be air-aligned after firing, and the precise acquisition of their initial roll angle has been a technical difficulty in the industry. In order to solve the problem that the driveless MEMS gyroscope cannot calculate the initial roll angle on a gentle trajectory, and the attitude information obtained by solving only the crest point is too few, this paper proposes a combined measurement scheme of driveless MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer based on adaptive complementary filtering technology, and the extended Kalman filter and Hilbert transform are used to solve the attitude calculation, which can obtain comprehensive attitude information and solve the problem of gentle trajectory attitude measurement of guided projectile. Both theoretical curve analysis and experimental results analysis prove the effectiveness of the method in this paper.
For the accurate cavity-length demodulation of fiber-optic Fabry–Perot (FP) sensors, a combined correlation method based on the fundamental cross-correlation and a higher-order one is proposed, simulated, and experimentally verified. By extending the reflection spectrum eightfold through continuous frequency-doubling three times, cross-correlation using both the original and eightfold spectra, and determination of the main peak of the fundamental cross-correlation coefficient function with the assistance of the eighth-order cross-correlation coefficient, the cavity-length demodulation resolution for fiber-optic FP sensors can be significantly improved even when the spectral bandwidth of the source is limited or the cavity length is relatively short. A cavity length resolution better than 1.8 nm is achieved for an FP sensor with a cavity length of ∼162 μm. The proposed demodulation method can effectively reduce the bandwidth requirement of the light source for the cavity-length extraction of fiber-optic FP sensors, particularly those with relatively short cavity lengths.
To realize precise absolute distance measurement, an all-fiber beat-frequency laser heterodyne distance measurement system based on a fiber-optic interferometric structure was proposed and demonstrated. An acousto-optic frequency shifter is introduced into one arm of a fiber-optic Mach–Zenhder interferormeter to generate the beat-frequency laser beams in two fiber-optic paths. By a ternary sinusoidal curve fitting method to extract the initial phases of the two beat-frequency laser signals and their phase difference, a distance measurement precision of several tens micrometers can be realized in a distance range of several meters. Experiments showed a maximum relative error of 0.0548% and a resolution of 83.333 μm in a distance range of 0 to 600 mm.
To eliminate the serious detrimental effects caused by frequency drifts of acousto-optic frequency shifters (AOFSs) in conventional all-fiber-optic heterodyne Doppler measurement systems, a differential all-fiber-optic heterodyne configuration is proposed. By delicate arrangement of the fiber-optic path and using only one AOFS, zero drift, which commonly occurs in conventional systems, is eliminated. Based on the proposed configuration, a differential all-fiber-optic heterodyne Doppler measurement system has been built. Using a piezoelectric ceramic oscillator as the moving object, it has been verified that the proposed system is able to eliminate zero drift, and the displacement and velocity measurement accuracies reach 0.775 μm and 0.009 mm / s, respectively. It has been shown that the differential all-fiber-optic heterodyne Doppler measurement system can achieve good performance in both displacement and velocity measurements, even in a harsh environment with drastic temperature variation.
