Two-Axis Bending Sensor Based on Asymmetric Grid Long-Period Fiber Grating
IEEE Sensors Journal(2022)
摘要
A novel bidirectional high-sensitivity bending sensor based on the
$\upsilon $
-shaped long-period fiber grating (LPFG) is designed and demonstrated. The
$\upsilon $
-shaped LPFG is composed of an array of asymmetrical
$\upsilon $
-shaped grating planes, which can provide stronger refractive index modulation than conventional planar grids. Therefore, the proposed sensor provides a more sensitive result. The experimental results show that the maximum bending sensitivity of
$\upsilon $
-shaped LPFG reaches −24.08 nm/
$\text{m}^{-{1}}$
within the bending range of 0.22
$\text{m}^{-{1}}\,\,\sim \,\,2.21\,\,\text{m}^{-{1}}$
, enhancing the bending sensitivity while improving sensitivity to the micro-bending area. The sensitivity of
$\upsilon $
-shaped LPFG can be potentially improved by optimizing the structural parameters of the grid.
