Combined spatial- and time-division-multiplexing scheme for fiber grating sensors with drift-compensated phase-sensitive detection.
A combined spatial- and time-division-multiplexing topology with drift-compensated high-resolution wavelength-shift detection is reported for fiber Bragg grating sensors. An eight-element grating sensor array is demonstrated based on this topology. A resolution of ~1.2 microepsilon over a range of ~1.5 mepsilon with a measurement bandwidth of 30 Hz (~0.22 microepsilon/ radicalHz) has been achieved for quasi-static strain measurement.
