Power-interrogated and simultaneous measurement of temperature and torsion using paired helical long-period fiber gratings with opposite helicities
Abstract
A power-interrogated sensor which allows for simultaneous measurement of temperature and torsion is proposed and experimentally demonstrated, which is based on utilization of paired helical long-period fiber gratings (HLPG) with opposite helicities. Unlike most of the previous fiber grating-based sensing system, here the paired HLPGs are simultaneously used as both the sensing and the interrogating elements and thus the bulk and high-cost wavelength-interrogating device can be eliminated. Moreover not only the torsion but also the torsion direction can be determined simultaneously. The temperature sensitivity obtained is estimated to be ~41 pm/°C within a range of 20-150 °C, and the torsion responsivities obtained are ~-1.414 nm/rad/m and ~1.276 nm/rad/m, respectively within a rotation angle of -360°~360°.
