Analysis of a fiber specklegram sensor by using coupled-mode theory.
The performance of the fiber specklegram sensor (FSS) by use of the waveguide coupled-mode theory is analyzed. The analyses are based on the microbending effect on the sensing fiber, in which we have found that the sensitivity of the FSS is affected by the core diameter and the bending geometry. Experimental confirmations of the analyses are also provided in which we have shown that experimental data are consistent with the analyses.
