Strain measurement module with tunable light generator and strain measurement system using the same
Abstract:
A strain measurement system includes a tunable light generator, a coupler, a fiberoptic sensor unit, and an optical detector. The tunable light generator includes a Super Luminescent light emission Diode (SLD), and a tunable Fabry-Perrot (FP) filter cascaded to an output terminal of the SLD to convert light having a wideband spectrum into discrete optical signals. The coupler receives and distributes the optical signals and passes them to a wavelength compensation device which detects wavelengths of the optical signals. The fiberoptic sensor unit receives the optical signals from the tunable light generator through the coupler and transmits a response signal corresponding to a variation of strain attributable to load. The optical detector detects the response signal output from the fiberoptic sensor through the coupler.
