Optic fiber bragg grating sensor

Abstract

The optic fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor comprises of an elastic circular diaphragm and one or two FBG attached to the bottom surface of the elastic circular diaphragm. Two ends of the FBG are connected to an optic fiber for signal transmission. The FBG sensor readouts are independent of temperature fluctuation. The FBG sensor mechanism according to the present invention may be applied for various purposes such as a gauge pressure transducer, differential pressure transducer, load cell and displacement transducer with distributive capabilities.
