  • Patent number: 9632114
    Abstract: This present inversion provides a digital closed-loop fiber optical current sensor. The modulation signal of the optical wave “phase modulator” of the fiber optical current sensor system is modulation square wave, signal processing system extracts any harmonic wave of the photoelectric converter output modulation square waves, and extracts the measured current information from it. The preamplifier of signal processing system is transimpedance amplifier TIA, the bandwidth is extracted 1/650 instantaneous amplitude square wave directly from the modulation square wave (existing), thus the thermal noise of the preamplifier output and shot noise level is reduced to the existing technology of below 1/650; the current-voltage gain of transimpedance amplifier TIA does not depend on the feedback network resistance, thus it can have high current-voltage conversion gain and use low resistance in the feedback network TIA at the same time.
