Recent Advances in Long-distance FBG Sensor Systems at UESTC
摘要
Abstract
Recent progress in long-distance in-Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor systems at University of Electronic Science & Technology of China (UESTC) is reviewed in this paper. Two novel approaches with a 50km transmission distance are proposed and demonstrated. The first one is based on the combination of bidirectional Raman amplification and a dual Erbium-Doped Fiber (EDF) configuration. A good Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) of ~16dB is achieved with only a pump power of ~280 mW, which is ~10 dB higher than that without amplification. The second is based on a novel tunable fiber ring laser configuration with hybrid Raman/EDFA configuration. Experimental results show that an excellent optical SNR of ~60 dB has been achieved for a 50 km transmission distance with a low Raman pump power of ~170 mW and a low EDFA pump power of ~40 mW at wavelength of 980 nm. It is anticipated that these long-distance FBG sensing systems could find important applications in health monitoring of large infra-structures, such as oil or gas pipelines, ultra-long bridges and tunnels, river banks, and so on.关键词
