Performance analysis of Strain sensor based on Fiber Bragg Grating

A fiber Bragg grating can be worked as reflector, it is constructed in a short section of optical fiber that reflects light of specific wavelength and allow to pass remaining wavelengths. This is possible by creating a periodic change in refractive index within the fiber core. The change in the modal index of fiber caused due to strain results in a Bragg wavelength. This work describes performance of Fiber Bragg Gratings as a strain sensor at 1550nm wavelength is considered for simulation, corresponding dynamic strain and wavelength shifts are analysed. This performance analysis is useful especially for intrusion detection system where environments are harsh. This sensor is compatible with data communication system and can be used for remote sensing
