Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Analytical Investigation of a Novel Interrogation Approach of Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors Using Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Pala, DenizThis work presents a novel approach in interrogating Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) of cascaded identical FBGs using Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometer (OFDR). The fundamentals of both polarisation properties of uniform FBGs and polarisation-sensitive OFDR are explained and the benefits of this novel approach in measuring transversal load are discussed. The numerical programs computing the spectral evolution of PDL of the FBGs in the array as a function of grating parameters (grating length and birefringence) are presented. Our simulation results show an excellent agreement with the previously reported simulation (and experimental) results in the literature obtained on a single FBG by using classical state-of-the-art measurement techniques. As an envisaged application, the proposed system shows the feasibility of measuring the residual stresses during manufacturing process of composite materials which is not straightforward by amplitude spectrum measurements and/or considering only the axial strains. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

It is capable of measuring IR radiation independently from the environmental temperature fluctuations. Experimental work shows that this IR detection prototype have strong conveniences (fast response and reliability in harsh environment) compared to previous detectors which makes it a very good option for early fire detection systems. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

The equal-length branches can be effectively monitored, but also the information of temperature at any place in the network can be obtained. The feasibility of this technique is experimentally demonstrated. © 2010 OSA.Article Citation - WoS: 35Complete Analysis of Multireflection and Spectral-Shadowing Crosstalks in a Quasi-Distributed Fiber Sensor Interrogated by Ofdr(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2012) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Moeyaert, Véronique; Mégret, Patrice; Wuilpart, MarcWe present the analysis of a quasi-distributed fiber sensor based on the concatenation of identical low-reflective fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) taking into account both multireflection and spectral-shadowing crosstalks. This allows obtaining more realistic values of the design parameters such as the maximum number of sensing points, the reflectivity of the gratings, and the distance between the sensing points. © 2001-2012 IEEE.
