Embodiment Construction

[0017] Such as figure 1 As shown, the ASE light source (100) sends the broadband optical signal into the circulator (101), the laser signal is reflected by the FBG3 (200) to the circulator (101), and then divided into two beams with the same intensity by the coupler (102) Light. The Bragg wavelength (central wavelength) of FGB1 (201) is the same as the sensing grating FBG3 (200), while the Bragg wavelength of FBG2 (202) has a positive offset (or negative offset) relative to the central wavelength of FBG3 (200) ), the offset is equal to the 3dB bandwidth of the sensing grating FBG3.

[0018] The fiber grating reflection spectrum can be approximated by a Gaussian function (such as figure 2 shown), then the distribution of the light signal reflected by FBG3(200) can be expressed as:

[0019] I s (λ)=S(λ B )G(λ) (1)

[0020] Among them, S(λ B ) represents the characteristic spectrum of the ASE light source (100), which is a wavelength-independent quantity as mentioned abov...

Abstract

The invention discloses a differential pair grating demodulating technology for fiber grating sensor stress measurement, wherein one sensing grating and at least two reference gratings are adopted, spectrum parameters of one of the reference gratings are the same as that of the sensing grating, and the Bragg wavelength of the other reference gratings is subjected to micro shift relative to the sensing grating. Optical power signals which pass through the reference gratings by means of transmission are respectively acquired, and measurement data at corresponding time points are subtracted to obtain a stress demodulating curve. Compared with the common single-channel matching grating demodulating manner, the differential pair grating demodulating technology for the fiber grating sensor stress measurement is increased by about twice in the aspect of sensitivity for stress measurement, and the measurement error caused by fluctuation of output light power of a light source can be eliminated. The invention can be applied to a fiber grating stress sensing system so as to realize high-sensitivity stress monitoring of traffic safety monitoring systems for high-speed railways, urban rail trains, bridge and tunnel structures and the like, and has a wide application value in fields, such as intelligent buildings, geological and geotechnical engineering and the like.
