Abstract

This paper presents a novel method to estimate displacement of a moving object based on model calibration in a weak feedback laser diode self-mixing system. A hybrid genetic algorithm is employed to locate the global minimum for the cost function which is constructed as the discrepancy between theoretically calculated system output and the experimental data. In turn, displacement measurement is achieved by identifying the optimal parameters for the system model. The proposed method is tested by both simulation and experimental setup with measuring accuracy better than 25nm.
