Fiber bragg grating wavelength demodulator

Abstract

The invention discloses a fiber bragg grating wavelength demodulator which comprises a broadband flat light source, a circulator, a fiber bragg grating, a beam splitter, a plurality of narrow-band transmission optical filters, a photodiode, a trans-impedance amplifier and a differential amplification circuit. The inclination angles of two adjacent narrow-band transmission optical filters are different, and the narrow-band transmission optical filters and the corresponding amplification and differential circuits form wavelength demodulation channels. The narrow-band transmission optical filters with different preset angles are utilized to realize that the change relation of transmission light intensity along with the increase of wavelength is just opposite, a photodiode is utilized to convert an optical signal into a current signal, and a trans-impedance amplifier is utilized to convert the current signal into a voltage signal and amplify the voltage signal; and the two voltage signals are differentiated and amplified by a differential amplifier to obtain the relationship between the differential signal and the central wavelength of the FBG. Compared with other FBG wavelength demodulation devices, the wavelength demodulation device has the advantages that the structure is simple, the demodulation speed is high, the demodulation speed is about 100 MHz, and the demodulation precision is about +/-5 pm.
