Abstract

In order to complete the high-speed wavelength demodulation of output signal of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensing unit, an edge filter wavelength demodulation system is established in this paper. This wavelength demodulation system uses a reference FBG as an edge filter. First, the mathematical model of the system is built based on demodulation principle. In the model, the spectrum of FBG is simplified to Gaussian distribution. The model describes the relationship between the output voltage and input wavelength differential. According to the research above, the hardware and software of this demodulation system are developed. Besides, a calibration method of the system is proposed. Finally, experiments are carried out. According to the experiment results, the sensitivity of the wavelength demodulation system is 6.3mV/pm. When the demodulation frequency is up to 5kHz, the wavelength resolution is 0.23pm. This system has many advantages, such as simple structure, low cost and high resolution in high speed wavelength demodulation
