    Design of Fiber Bragg Grating Demodulator

    To achieve synchronous demodulation of a large-capacity Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor network, a FBG demodulation system based on modulated grating Y-branch (MG-Y) tunable laser is designed, combining wavelength division multiplexing and space division multiplexing technologies. In this paper, a novel demodulation algorithm based on the variable-step-size method and cross-correlation algorithm is proposed to demodulate the wavelength of an FBG. The characteristic feature of these sensors is that the position of the spectrum changes due to the action of a particular physical quantity.

    Fiber Bragg Grating CG

    A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is a type of distributed Bragg reflector constructed in a short segment of optical fiber that reflects particular wavelengths of light and transmits all others. This is achieved by creating a periodic variation in the refractive index of the fiber core, which generates a wavelength-specific dielectric mirror. Hence a fiber Bragg grating can be used as an inline optical filter to bloc. HistoryThe first in-fiber Bragg grating was demonstrated by in 1978. Initially, the gratings were fabricated using a visible laser propagating along the fiber core. In 1989, Gerald Meltz and colleagues demonstrat. The fundamental principle behind the operation of an FBG is, where light traveling between media of different refractive indices may both and at the interface. The refracti.
