Abstract

The invention relates to a sensitivity enhancement demodulation method and device of a fiber optical Bragg grating strain sensor and belongs to the technical field of optical detection devices. The method comprises the following steps: outputting original laser which is as the same as resonant wavelength of FBG (Fiber Bragg Grating) and changes synchronously in real time by an optical fiber laser as pump light; after combining the pump light and signal laser at another wavelength, carrying out chirped amplification of frequency in a non-linear system to realize high order four-wave mixing; and finally, realizing high sensitivity detection of wavelength drift and corresponding strain of the original laser through wavelength analysis of idle light. According to the invention, sensor demodulation with high strain sensitivity can be obtained at wavelength near 1550nm, and high strain sensitivity which is higher than intrinsic sensitivity of FBG can be obtained in the demodulating process based on common FBG, so that the method and device provided by the invention are suitable for sense application of high strain sensitivity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device and method in the technical field of optical detection devices, in particular to a sensitivity enhancement demodulation method and device for a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) strain sensor. Background technique [0002] In recent years, fiber optic sensing has been applied in a wide range of fields due to its advantages of anti-radiation, anti-interference, anti-corrosion, low cost, ultra-small, pollution-free, safe and reliable. In particular, fiber optic sensors using FBG can achieve high-sensitivity temperature and strain measurements, which can be used for high temperature monitoring, building health monitoring, fire safety monitoring, deformation detection of dams and bridges, etc. [0003] Generally speaking, the strain sensitivity of 1pm / με can be obtained by using the fiber Bragg grating of traditional single-mode fiber [B.Lee, "Review of the present status of optical fiber sensors," Opt.Fiber Technol.9,57-7...
