Measurement of the feedback coefficient by monitoring the power difference at power jump point in self-mixing vibration signal.

Abstract This paper proposed a new method for measuring the feedback coefficient in the self-mixing interference. In experiment, the value of feedback coefficient is obtained by measuring the power difference at power jump point that based on the self-mixing vibration sensing system. It realized the measurement of feedback coefficient in range of 1–7.8 and shows a good agreement with the theoretical derivation and the corresponding simulation. Meanwhile, there is a good fitting result with the determination coefficient of 0.98 and line-width broadening factor of 3.245 respectively, which also realized measurement of feedback coefficient and line-width broadening factor at the same time.
