An Interferometric Multi-Sensor Absolute Distance Measurement System for Use in Harsh Environments
Abstract
1. Introduction
- Wire positioning sensors (WPS): X–Y distance sensors used to determine the vertical and radial offsets of components relative to a stretched wire.
- Hydrostatic leveling sensors (HLS): These measure the vertical offset to a water surface, serving as a leveling reference to determine component positions in the vertical direction.
- Inclinometers: These measure the roll angle of the aligned components.
- Distance monitoring sensors: These can be short-range (<200 mm), monitoring the longitudinal stability of component positions, or long-range (<16 m), measuring the distance to the straight reference WPS line of the side galleries.
- Internal monitoring optical vacuum heads (feedthroughs) and cryogenic reflectors: These measure the distance between special vacuum heads installed on the cryostat (at ambient temperature) and the reflectors that are at cryogenic temperatures and attached to the cold mass of the magnet or radio frequency cavities (further details on the internal monitoring application can be found in Section 3.3).
2. Materials and Methods: FT-FSI Measurement System
- A reference interferometer is a constant-length interferometer used for linearizing the optical sweep, mitigating unwanted modulations that affect measurements.
- An erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is used to ensure appropriate amplification of the laser signal before distribution to multiple measurement channels.
- Measurement channel circuitry consists of an optical circulator, measurement optics (collimator or bare ferrule), a photodetector, and a data acquisition system (DAQ), providing measurement data to a processing computer.
- Portable FT-FSI measurement units: During the development and testing of the FRAS internal monitoring system (2017–2022), an increasing number of tests in various locations and the demand for additional measurement channels led to the creation of portable FT-FSI units (see Figure 5a,b). These units, built upon the experience from the initial prototype, improved portability, expanded measurement capabilities, and optimized the cost of signal acquisition circuitry.
- FRAS production interferometers: The FRAS system requires over 660 optical channels for its interferometric sensors (see Section 1), along with 140 Bragg-based load sensors for supporting jack mechanics, bringing the total number of optical channels to more than 800. To manage this large-scale setup and allow for future expansion, FT-FSI data acquisition is distributed across four independent racks (see Figure 5c). Each rack supports up to 248 measurement channels, collectively providing a capacity of 992 channels. These racks are strategically positioned on the left and right sides of the IP1 and IP5 service galleries of the LHC (cf. Figure 1), ensuring full coverage of the FRAS installation while allowing room for future upgrades.

4.3.1. FRAS Internal Monitoring Sensors
- Most FSI measurements, when compared with CMM data, confirm the previously estimated FT-FSI uncertainty of approximately 4.5 m within the 0.1 m to 1.1 m range [59].
- The first measurement with the SMF 28 fiber (depicted in Figure 24a) shows a larger variation in CMM to FT-FSI difference. This was due to excessively high FT-FSI power, causing significant parasitic reflections from shiny surfaces (reflector nest and CMM handling bar) that affected the identification of FFT peaks. Reducing the FT-FSI signal power mitigated this effect and lowered the CMM-FT-FSI difference dispersion to 4 m [59]. This confirms the importance of designing sensor equipment to minimize parasitic reflections.
- At some points in the measured aperture, jumps in the CMM to FT-FSI difference were observed (e.g., 9 m in Figure 24b), that can again be explained by parasitic reflections.
- In conditions where parasitic reflections are minimized, the reflector’s position within the laser beam field of view did not impact the measurement accuracy for bare SMF28 fiber measurements.
- For the crab cavity FSI head measurements (cf. Figure 24d), where an aspheric lens was used (see the design details in Figure 9b), the reduced divergence angle of the laser beam caused an enlargement of the spherical wave radius emitted from the head. This effect was visible as a gradual increase in the CMM to FT-FSI difference with increasing distance from the aperture center. This known effect can be corrected through FSI head calibration.
- The intensity distribution within the measurement cone exhibits a Gaussian-like profile. The farther from the cone’s center, the lower the return intensity (see Figure 25c,d for details).
- A divergent beam opening angle of approximately 12° (2× 6°) was confirmed for the inner triplet FSI head.
- A beam opening angle of approximately 2.2° (2× 1.1°) was confirmed for the crab cavity FSI head.
- Increasing the nominal 1 mW-emitted laser power can enlarge the field of view for the heads.
