Abstract—We report on the use of a frequency-domain reflec-tometry technique for multiplexing fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. This technique is based on the modulation of light inten-sity from a broadband source by a swept-frequency RF carrier. Two-channel and three-channel ber Bragg grat- ing (FBG) are designed and simulated using MOD-Grating software.

Fiber Bragg Grating Matched Reflection Principle
Fiber Bragg Gratings are made by laterally exposing the core of a single-mode fiber to a periodic pattern of intense laser light. The exposure produces a permanent increase in the refractive index of the fiber's core, creating a fixed index modulation according to the exposure. A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is a type of distributed Bragg reflector constructed in a short segment of optical fiber that reflects particular wavelengths of light and transmits all others. Fiber Bragg. In this paper, a high resolution and response speed interrogation method based on a reflective-matched Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) scheme is investigated in detail.
