Problems solved by technology

The Chinese patent "Fiber Bragg Grating Three-dimensional Acceleration Vibration Sensor" (publication number CN 101210937A) and US Patent US 20060219009A1 use three gratings to realize three-dimensional acceleration measurement. The probe structure designed by this method is too complicated, which is not conducive to practical use
However, the change of the spectrum occupies a wide channel, and generally requires a spectrometer to demodulate, so the cost of the sensor head and demodulation is very high

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical fiber accelerometer, in particular to an integrated two-dimensional optical fiber micro accelerometer based on a four-core optical fiber. Background technique [0002] The accelerometer is an important sensor commonly used in shock and vibration measurement of ordnance, vehicles, ships, etc., earthquake detection, inertial navigation and guidance systems. The inertial force or displacement generated during motion can be measured to measure the corresponding acceleration. Traditional accelerometers use electromechanical methods to measure the inertial force or displacement of the mass, while fiber optic accelerometers use fiber optic sensing technology to measure the inertial force or displacement of the mass. Compared with the former, the latter not only has the unique advantages of anti-electromagnetic interference, but also has small size and light weight, wide dynamic range, high precision, can work in harsh envi...
