3.1 nonlinear vibration
vibration whose displacement has a nonlinear relationship with the elastic restoring force, with the change of the vibration amplitude
3.2 nonlinear jump
jump phenomenon of the frequency response curve when the vibration amplitude exceeds a certain threshold
3.3 frequency deviation
deviation of the vibration frequency of the resonator in a closed-loop system from the natural frequency of the resonator
4 Test parameters of nonlinear vibration of the resonators
Test parameters of nonlinear vibration of the resonators are:
a) amplitude-frequency response of the nonlinear vibration, ( ) A ω ;
b) phase-frequency response of the nonlinear vibration, ( ) P ω ;
c) bending factor of the amplitude-frequency response, b ;
d) amplitude threshold for the nonlinear jump,
5 Test method for the amplitude-frequency response and phase-frequency
response of the nonlinear vibration
5.1 Test system
A test system consists of the following equipments:
a) laser vibrometer;
b) micro-optical apparatus;
c) signal generator;
d) vacuum chamber;
e) mounting fixture;
f) vacuum pump;
g) angle valve.
The test system is illustrated in Figure 1 .
5.2 Test conditions
a) Keep the ambient temperature within 23 °C ± 5 °C.
b) Maintain the vacuum degree of the vacuum chamber according to the actual operation of the resonator.
c) Adjust the micro-optical apparatus to restrict the laser spot within the surface of the resonator.
d) For transparent resonators, the laser beam should illuminate on the metal layer on the resonator to enhance the reflected laser intensity.
e) The connection of the resonator, the installing base and the vacuum chamber should be strong enough.
f) For out-of-plane vibrating resonators, the surface of the installing base should be parallel to the horizontal plane. For in-plane vibrating resonators, the surface of the installing base should be set to a certain angle about the horizon level, to ensure enough intensity of the reflected laser into the detector.
g) The vacuum pump and the vacuum chamber should be connected with flexible bellows in case of the vibration propagation from the pump to the chamber.
h) The angle valve should be tightly shut off to well maintain the vacuum level, and then the pump turned off before operating the test procedure.
5.3 Test procedures
a) Set the frequency of the vibration excitation according to the estimated value of the natural frequency of the resonator. And then implement the initial frequency scan around the natural frequency within a wide range. The amplitude frequency response and the phase frequency response can be measured according to the vibration displacement of the resonators. And record the resonant frequency of the resonator.
b) Reset the vibration excitation parameters to implement the frequency scan for the second time: reducing the interval of the frequency scan to half of that set in the initial frequency scan and reducing the range of the frequency scan to ten times of the half-power bandwidth of the amplitude frequency response. The amplitude frequency response and the phase frequency response can be measured according to the vibration displacement of the resonators. And record the resonant frequency of the resonator.BS IEC 62047-32 pdf download.
