Design of ground-airborne TEM three-component air-core coil sensor

Transient electromagnetic method (TEM),as a non-seismic geophysical exploration mainstream electromagnetic method,is widely used in oil,gas,mineral and other underground resources exploration areas. The coil sensor is generally used to collect data. In view of the problems of incomplete information of the abnormal body and the data loss in the existing TEM single-component coil sensor,a three-component TEM coil sensor is designed. By analyzing the relationship between sensor sensitivity and coil structure parameters,the coil structure and turns are designed. By analyzing the frequency response characteristics of the TEM magnetic field sensor,the signal distortion is reduced by using the under-damped matching mode. By analyzing the distribution of various noise sources of the magnetic sensor,the appropriate amplifier is selected to reduce the background noise. Finally,a three-component TEM induction magnetic field sensor is designed. The weight of the sensor is controlled at 3.2 kg and the working frequency is 10 mHz-10 kHz. The background noises of X and Y components probably keep in 1.5×10^-8 V/ Hz and sensitivities are 8.4 and 9.8 nT/s,respectively,the background noise of vertical component is 2.1× 10^-7 V/ Hz and sensitivity is 18.5 nT/s. Compared with the existing single-component TEM receiving magnetic field sensor,the designed sensor realizes the signal acquisition of three components. Without too much increase in volume and total weight,it improves the sensitivity of the sensor and reduces the background noise,thus the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the signal is improved.

The current and the magnetic flux density are computed first and then the magnetic force is obtained. Thus, the dynamic stability performance of air-core reactor can be analyzed at the design stage to reduce experimental cost and shorten the lead-time of product development.

Reconfigurable structured light generation and its coupling to air-core fiber

Recently,structured light beams have attracted substantial attention in many applications,including optical communications,imaging,optical tweezers,and quantum optics.We propose and experimentally demonstrate a reconfigurable structured light beam generator in order to generate diverse structured light beams with adjustable beam types,beam orders,and beam sizes.By controlling the sizes of generated free-space structured light beams,free-space orbital angular momentum(OAM)beams and vector beams are coupled into an air-core fiber.To verify that our structured light generator enables generating structured light with high beam quality,polarization distributions and mode purity of generated OAM beams and vector beams in both free space and air-core fiber are characterized.Such a structured light generator may pave the way for future applications based on higher-order structured light beams.

Design and optimization of vector coil sensor suited to magnetometric resistivity method

Magnetometric resistivity(MMR)method is a new way to detect dam leakage.The coil sensor is generally used to collect data in geophysical exploration methods.Given the characteristics of accurate vector data requirements and high sensitivity requirement,a three-component MMR air-core coil sensor is designed.Through the analysis of sensor sensitivity and coil structure parameters,the coil structure and turn number are designed.By analyzing the noise source of the sensor,a suitable amplifier is selected to reduce the background noise of the system.Through the analysis of the three-component non-orthogonal angles,the parameters of the non-orthogonal angles of the coils are corrected.Finally,a three-component MMR induction magnetic field sensor is designed.The volume of the sensor is controlled at 0.027 m 3.The background noise of X、Y and Z are 5.030435 nV/Hz@380 Hz and magnetic field sensitivities are 0.18995 pT/Hz@380 Hz.The three channels have good consistency,and the three-component nonorthogonal angles correction error of three components is controlled within 0.2%.

A 3D analytical model for vortex velocity field based on spiral streamline pattern

Vortices that develop over intakes are a hazardous hydraulic phenomenon.In this study, a 3D model was developed to study the flow field in air-core vortices.This model is based on the spiral pattern of streamlines and the analytical solution of the momentum and continuity equations for deriving the three components of velocity.The model provides equations for free surface profiles and 3D patterns of the streamlines.Moreover, a new relationship was suggested for calculating effective viscosity and its distribution across the vortex flow field.The performance of the proposed analytical model was compared with existing experimental data and the results of previous analytical models.The outcomes indicated that the proposed model could predict characteristics of the vortex flow with good accuracy.

Finding the superior mode basis for mode-division multiplexing:a comparison of spatial modes in air-core fiber

Diverse spatial mode bases can be exploited in mode-division multiplexing(MDM)to sustain the capacity growth in fiber-optic communications,such as linearly polarized(LP)modes,vector modes,LP orbital angular momentum(LP-OAM)modes,and circularly polarized OAM(CP-OAM)modes.Nevertheless,which kind of mode bases is more appropriate to be utilized in fiber still remains unclear.Here,we aim to find the superior mode basis in MDM fiber-optic communications via a system-level comparison in air-core fiber(ACF).We first investigate the walk-off effect of four spatial mode bases over 1-km ACF,where LP and LP-OAM modes show intrinsic mode walk-off,while it is negligible for vector and CP-OAM modes.We then study the mode coupling effect of degenerate vector and CP-OAM modes over 1-km ACF under fiber perturbations,where degenerate even and odd vector modes suffer severe mode cross talk,while negligible for highorder degenerate CP-OAM modes based on the laws of angular momentum conservation.Moreover,we comprehensively evaluate the system-level performance for data-carrying single-channel and two-channel MDM transmission with different spatial mode bases under various kinds of fiber perturbations(bending,twisting,pressing,winding,and out-of-plane moving).The obtained results indicate that the CP-OAM mode basis shows superiority compared to other mode bases in MDM fiber-optic communications without using multiple-input multiple-output digital signal processing.Our findings may pave the way for robust shortreach MDM optical interconnects for data centers and high-performance computing.

Reduced thermal sensitivity of hybrid air-core photonic band-gap fiber ring resonator

A novel hybrid air-core photonic band-gap fiber(PBF) ring resonator with twin 90° polarization-axis rotated splices is proposed and demonstrated. Frist, we measure the temperature dependent birefringence coefficient of air-core PBF and Panda fiber. Experimental results show that the relative temperature dependent birefringence coefficient of air-core PBF is 1.42×10^(-8)/℃, which is typically ~16 times less than that of Panda fiber. Then, we extract the geometry profile of air-core PBF from scanning electron microscope(SEM) images. Numerical modal is built to distinguish the fast axis and slow axis in the fiber. By precisely setting the length difference in air-core PBF and Panda fiber between two 90° polarization-axis rotated splicing points, the hybrid air-core PBF ring resonator is constructed, and the finesse of the resonator is 8.4. Environmental birefringence variation induced by temperature change can be well compensated, and experimental results show an 18-fold reduction in thermal sensitivity, compared with resonator with twin 0° polarization-axis rotated splices.
