Absolute Distance Measurement Based on Self-Mixing Interferometry Using Compressed Sensing

An absolute distance measurement sensor based on self-mixing interferometry (SMI) is suitable for application in aerospace due to its small size and light weight. However, an SMI signal with a high sampling rate places a burden on sampling devices and other onboard sources. SMI distance measurement...

description An absolute distance measurement sensor based on self-mixing interferometry (SMI) is suitable for application in aerospace due to its small size and light weight. However, an SMI signal with a high sampling rate places a burden on sampling devices and other onboard sources. SMI distance measurement using compressed sensing (CS) is proposed in this work to relieve this burden. The SMI signal was sampled via a measurement matrix at a sampling rate lower than Nyquist’s law and then recovered by the greedy pursuit algorithm. The recovery algorithm was improved to increase its robustness and iteration speed. On a distance measuring system with a measurement error of 60 µm, the difference between raw data with 1800 points and CS recovered data with 300 points was within 0.15 µm, demonstrating the feasibility of SMI distance measurement using CS.
