Abstract

The invention relates to an active fiber grating sensor wavelength demodulation system and method. The active fiber grating sensor wavelength demodulation system comprises a pump light source, a wavelength division multiplexing device, a beam combiner, a broadband light source, a light attenuator, a thermally-stabilized etalon, a coupler, a tunable filter, a photo-detector, and a control and signal processor. The beam combiner merges sensing light with standard comb-shaped spectrum output from the etalon. The light attenuator is used for reducing the intensity of the comb-shaped spectrum, so merged light emitted from the beam combiner forms spectrum which takes the high-intensity sensing light as main light and takes low-intensity comb-shaped spectrum as a background. The tunable filter scans and measures the merged spectrum under the driving of linear voltages. The demodulation method includes the three data processing steps: locating the spectral peak of a measured optical signal, determining the spectral peak and calculating the wavelength. In this way, accurate demodulation for the wavelength of sensing light of an active fiber sensor is achieved. The beneficial effects of the invention are that the system is simple in structure, high in integration, low in cost and high in measuring precision, is steady and reliable, etc.
