Through the application of novel signal processing techniques we are able to measure physical measurands with both high accuracy and low noise susceptibility. The first interrogation scheme is based upon a CCD spectrometer. We compare different algorithms for resolving the Bragg wavelength from a low resolution discrete representation of the reflected spectrum, and present optimal processing methods for providing a high integrity measurement from the reflection image. Our second sensing scheme uses a novel network of sensors to measure the distributive strain response of a mechanical system. U

Abstract:
In high-speed grinding research, it is required to measure temperature within the workpiece. Present techniques are thermocouple based, and often suffer from excessive electrical noise on the signal. This thesis presents a number of novel and existing optical sensing devices that overcome this limitation and also, in some cases, offer greater performance. The optical sensors are fibre Bragg grating based and the optical techniques used to interrogate that sensor include DWDM, WDM, athermic grating, tuneable grating and coupler.

Composite repairs are often used for damaged structures in order to recover the mechanical properties of the original structure. During service, there is the possibility that damage will occur in the repaired region and hence it would be useful to be able to monitor such repairs.

Abstract:
As the potential application of fiber optic sensors broadens, there is much interest in finding measurement systems that are simple, cost effective and show high power efficiency. The latter is extremely useful when dealing with multiplexed sensors distributed over large distances, which results in high signal attenuation and limits the number of sensors that can be interrogated by a minimum number of measurement units. In this thesis we explore a fiber laser-based wavelength-to-power mapping interrogation system for wavelength-division-multiplexed FBG sensors, and we prove that such solution

The understanding of how structural components endure loads, in particular variable loads, is that these components gradually, over some period of time depending on the nature of the loading and the material, develop a microcrack.

Beyond that point, the microcrack propagates in a manner that can be reliably predicted by computer analysis codes. Consequently, one can define different stages for the life of a structural component. These are: 1) the period prior to the formation of a microcrack, 2) the

碩士<br>逢甲大學<br>電機工程所<br>98<br>The content of this thesis is to investigate a new fiber sensor for simultaneously measuring the pressure and temperature with a packaged fiber Bragg grating (FBG) connected in a series with a long-period fiber grating (LPG). The central wavelength of an FBG is fabricated on the negative slope region of the loss peak of LPG transmission spectrum and the FBG is encapsulated in a polymer-half-filled metal cylinder with two openings on opposite sides of the wall of the polymer to measure the pressure. Utilizing the different optical response of the FBG and LPG, the ap

Abstract:
M.Ing. (Mechanical Engineering)<br>The dissertation explores the applications and limitations of optic Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors for the purpose of structural health monitoring of high performance composite aerospace structures. The absence of a set of stringent performance criteria governing the form and function of a sensory system for embedded high performance applications highlights the major hurdle to be overcome before widespread acceptance of these technologies becomes apparent. The dissertation therefore develops through an extensive literature study a basic framework of perfor

碩士<br>正修科技大學<br>電子工程研究所<br>95<br>The traditional sensor usually used a strainometer, capacitance, inductance, piezoelectric materials, and so on to be the modulation mechanism or the sensing element. In substance, this method always involves the measure of voltages or the galvanometry, so it is easy to be interfered with electromagnetism and the magnetic field, but the fibre-optic sensor is not. The fibre-optic sensor still can be used after irradiation treated Ionizing Radiation, so it applys to strict circumstances. For example, a nuclear power plant. This thesis utilizes Fiber Bragg Grating

碩士<br>國立中山大學<br>電機工程學系研究所<br>91<br>The reflection wavelength of Fiber Bragg Grating is sensitive to the strain and the temperature’s variation. We use Fiber Bragg Grating to be the sensor head and measure the vibration frequency in constant temperature environment. The vibration of object can make the sinusoidal strain to Fiber Bragg Grating, and it will make a little phase difference to the light of the fiber. Using the interferometer and demodulation system, we can measure the phase difference and vibration frequency. Our sensor configuration is made up of imbalance Mach-Zehnder interferomet
