Abstract
In this paper, we propose a fast endpoint detection method for dual Mach-Zehnder interferometer-based vibration sensing system. Firstly, we analyze the varying trend of the signal by derivation to detect the approximate endpoint. Secondly, we split part of the signal before the estimated endpoint into frames. Finally, we estimate the signal to noise ratio of each frame to calibrate the endpoint. Experiments have been carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. The results show that the accuracy is improved by using threshold judgement twice. And the mean processing time of the proposed method is 0.024s which is at least three times faster than the conventional zero-crossing ratio-based method which is the fastest algorithm as we know. Therefore, the proposed method has great potential in real-time monitoring based on distributed fiber interferometer vibration system.
