Tal característica faz com que os sensores ópticos sejam altamente vantajosos para as aplicações nos sistemas de sensoreamento utilizados pelas empresas de energia elétrica. Este trabalho apresenta o desenvolvimento de um protótipo de baixo custo de um sensor óptico de alta tensão com alta confiabilidade, que pode ser usado para monitorar o estado ou limiares de tensão em uma rede elétrica. Uma técnica de detecção do sinal através do sensoreamento com grades de Bragg é apresentada, fabricada e avaliada. Os resultados mostram que a técnica de detecção empregada, onde a amplitude ac do sinal da luz refletido é medida em um fotodiodo, mostra-se adequada para a aplicação em sensores de alta tensão. As medidas realizadas em um protótipo de sensor de alta tensão com fibra óptica com grade de Bragg indicam que o esquema de detecção desenvolvido é promissor, e pode ser usado para medir outros sinais dinâmicos que respondam a um esforço de pequena amplitude aplicado à fibra óptica. O protótipo desenvolvido permitiu a detecção de tensões variando na faixa de 143 V -60kY. É também apresentada uma nova técnica para estabilizar termicamente grades de Bragg com a temperatura, utilizando o sinal uma fibra extra, casada com a fibra do sensor, que através de um circuito de realimentação atua no elemento aquecedor/resfriador do laser semicondutor(thenno electrical cooler), para fazer com que o comprimento de onda do laser siga as variações da sintonia da grade de Bragg sensora, causadas por variações da temperatura. Esta técnica inovadora poderá ser utilizada para a compensação térmica de outros tipos de sensores com grade de Bragg, permitindo a fabricação de sensores de baixo custo e grande simplicidade de implementação / Abstract: Fiber optics sensors are specially indicated to operate in noisy electrical environments because they are immune to the effects of electromagnetic interference (EM!) found in these environrnents. Such characteristic makes these sensors highly advantageous to the applications in the measurement systems used by electrical energy companies. This work presents the development of a prototype of a high-voltage and a low cost optical sensor which is used to monitor the state or voltage threshold with a high reliability. A technique for the detection of fiber Bragg grating sensors signals was developed, presented and tested. The experimental results showed that the developed detection technique, where the ac amplitude of the signal result from the light reflection is measured with a photodiode is adequate for high voltage sensing applications. The prototype of the high voltage fiber Bragg sensor was tested and the measured results indicate that the technique can be used to detect any other dynarnic measurand which induces a small strain amplitude when applied to the fiber Bragg grating. The developed prototype detected voltages in the range from 143 V to 60 kV. It is also presented a new technique for obtaining temperature independent fiber Bragg gratings, using a feedback circuit which uses the signal detected from a matched fiber and generates a signal which actuates on the thermo electrical cooler of the semiconductor laser, modifying the laser' s output wavelength, in orer to accurate track the Bragg wavelength shifts caused by temperature variations. This novel technique can be used for the fabrication of simple and low-cost temperature compensated fiber Bragg grating sensors / Doutorado / Eletrônica, Microeletrônica e Optoeletrônica / Doutor em Engenharia Elétrica

Cette thèse s’inscrit dans le domaine de la modélisation des circuits analogiques et mixtes.Le travail part d’une problématique industrielle concernant les circuits électroniques utilisés dansles systèmes de forage pétrolier pour des besoins d’instrumentation et mesures. Ce travail de recherche concerne les circuits du front-end analogique que nous trouvons dans cette application industrielle. Nous examinons et nous essayons de trouver des modèles pour décrire l’effet des hautes températures sur les circuits électroniques dans un forage pétrolier. Ces circuits font partie des circuits industriels conventionnels. Ils ont généralement une température maximale de fonctionnement qui ne dépasse pas 125°C. Même si la température modifie le comportement de ces circuits, il existe des techniques d’adaptation qui permettent de compenser l’effet de la température sur ces circuits. Cependant, pour bien réussir la phase de la conception, il faut d’abord bien caractériser le comportement des différents circuits industriels utilisés en haute température. Il faut également trouver des modèles exacts qui décrivent le comportement de ces circuits en haute température. Or nous savons que la majorité des circuits industriels analogiques et mixtes sont décrits par des modèles de type SPICE. Par un choix de l’entreprise Schlumberger, notre partenaire industriel qui a financé ce travail, nous nous sommes intéressés dans notre étude à un composantspécifique présent dans la majorité des circuits analogiques et mixtes d’instrumentation :l’amplificateur opérationnel (l’AOP).Le travail commence par une étude des spécifications du circuit ainsi que le modèle SPICE.Une étude de la structure de ce modèle et sa simulation ont montré la non-précision du modèle audelàde 125°C. L’étude de validité du modèle a concerné le paramètre de la tension de décalage etle paramètre taux de rejection du mode commun. Nous avons interprété la différence des résultatsentre les mesures et la simulation de la tension de décalage. Nous avons constaté la limitation quereprésente l’approche structurelle par modélisation SPICE. Pour cette raison, nous avonssélectionné l’approche de modélisation comportementale pour les différents avantages qu’elleprésente. Ces avantages répondent à nos besoins et conviennent les mesures qui ont été effectuées.Nous avons sélectionné le langage VHDL-AMS et l’environnement Cadence ADVanceMS. Pourdéveloppé les modèles, nous avons alors énuméré les différents paramètres de performance d’unAOP. Nous avons validé la représentation de chaque paramètre par un circuit de test approprié.Dans un deuxième temps, nous avons approximé la variation de ces paramètres en température pardes équations polynomiales et exponentielles pour développer le modèle précis en HT. Le modèlea été validé par un circuit de test similaire au circuit expérimental. De bons résultats ont ététrouvés. L’erreur moyenne entre simulation VHDL-AMS et mesures n’a pas dépassé 3,11%. Dansle denier chapitre, nous avons simulé des circuits d’une chaine d’instrumentation. Nous avonssimulé l’effet de la température sur un capteur piézo-résistif (pont de Wheatstone). Trois architectures d’un amplificateur d’instrumentation ont été également modélisées e en se basant surle modèle VHD-AMS de l’AOP. / This work is dealing with the modelling of analogue and mixed signal circuits. Moreprecisely, we focus on modelling the circuits of an analogue front-end which is used in down-holedrilling industry for instrumentation and measurement purposes. This research had as a goal tomodel the temperature increasing effect in the behaviour of each circuit of the considered frontend.The studied circuits belong to the family of “conventional” circuits. Most of these circuitsoperate in a temperature which does not exceed 125°C. Even if the behaviour of the circuit changesdue to an increasing of the temperature, there are some well-know techniques that enable thecompensation of such effects. However, in order to obtain a precise simulation in the design phase,it is very important to have accurate models that describe the temperature increasing effect. Asmost of the commercial circuits models are written in SPICE, it is necessary first to review theaccuracy of SPICE models in high temperature (HT). This work focus on a specific circuit: theoperational amplifier (opamp). This device is present in many instrumentation circuits. Obtainingan accurate op-amp model in HT will help us develop accurate models of these circuits byconsidering their architectural description which is based on the opamp model.The work starts with the study of the structure of the SPICE model of the considered opamp.This study enables us to confirm the non-validity of the SPICE model in HT. The validity studyconsists in comparing the SPCE simulation results of two parameters (the voltage offset and thecommon mode rejection ratio) to measurement results. Moreover, we present an interpretation tothe difference that was observed in this comparison. After comparing different modellingapproaches, we select the behavioural modelling one. The VHDL-AMS was used to develop thenew precise opamp model in HT. The simulation is performance in Cadence/ADVanceMSenvironment. The representation of each opamp parameter is validated by a specific circuit. Thismodel is developed in two steps. In the first step, we develop an opamp model in which there is noconsideration of the temperature effect. In the second step, dependence of each parameter to thetemperature is described by a polynomial or exponential function. This function is the result of thefitting process of the measurement results. These equations are inserted in the VHDL-AMS model.All parameters are again validated in each temperature. The test-circuit is the same circuit used inthe experimental test of the opamp parameters. The average error between measurement andsimulation does not exceed 3.11%. In the last chapter, we simulate some circuits of the theanalogue front-end of an acquisition system. We simulate for example the effect of the temperatureeffect on the accuracy of a Wheatstone bridge. Three architecture of an instrumentation amplifierwere also modelled and simulated in different temperature of [20°C, 220°C] in the basis of thedeveloped opamp model.
