Mediumfrequency fiber Bragg grating (FBG) acceleration sensors are used in important applications in mechanical, aerospace and weapon equipment, and have strict requirements in terms of resonance frequency and sensitivity. A novel medium-frequency accelerometer, based on fiber Bragg grating and flexible hinges, is proposed in this paper. The differential structure doubles the sensitivity of the sensor while avoiding temperature effects. The structure model and principle for the sensor are introduced, the sensor’s sensing characteristics are theoretically analyzed, and the structure parameters for the sensor are determined through numerical analysis. The sensing experiments show that the resonance frequency of the sensor is approximately 2800 Hz, the sensitivity is 21.8 pm/g in the flat frequency range of 50–1000 Hz, and the proposed sensor has a good temperature self-compensation function and lateral anti-interference capability.

Abstract Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) has been widely used in temperature and strain measurement. Its center wavelength drift is affected by both temperature and strain. The influence of temperature and strain on center wavelength should be decoupled when measuring. In this paper, the sensing characteristics of FBG which pasted at different angles were simulated and analyzed, and it was found that FBG sensing for strain has strong directivity. A dual FBG composite construction based on the directivity of FBG sensing was proposed. Two FBGs were at an Angle of 62°. One FBG was sensitive to both temperature and strain, and the other was only sensitive to temperature. The structure can realize the decoupling of temperature and strain, and it doesn’t depend on feature of cantilever beam. It was verified by experimental analysis that the decoupling result was good by utilizing the combined FBG structure, and decoupling was realized easily.

A novel technology for the simultaneous and independent measurement of dual parameters is proposed and experimented. By using a single fiber Bragg grating half-pasted by 1C-LV epoxy under different curing conditions, the sensor structure is designed such that the reflective single-peak spectrum splits into a twin-peak spectrum, which makes the FBG spectrum form a natural spectral peak splitting bias. A measurement limitation exists in the FBG sensor packaging at room temperature, which can be solved by the high-temperature cured packaging method. To verify the validity of the theory and methodology, the experimental system is used. In the range from –1000 to +1000 με and from 35 to 75°C, the Bragg wavelength change is relative linear to the strain and temperature. The temperature and strain variations can be independently and simultaneously measured using the split peak, and the deviations of the FBG sensor are ±1°C and ±5 με, respectively. This single FBG sensor can realize dual-parameter measurement, which is valuable for narrow-space health monitoring.
