Abstract

In the using of FBG(Fiber Bragg Grating) developed in home land, we designed and manufactured united FBG acoustic transducers the first in Korea. they are being applied to multi-point signal detection of FBG Hydrophone used Hopper WDM(national patent NO 10-1502954) in the underwater. On united FBG transducers manufactured, we made an demonstrated on respective frequency response peculiarities in the underwater and analyzed the special characters. As the experimental result on frequency response peculiarities, we made it possible underwater acoustic detection on united FBG acoustic transducers type to maximum 30Hz~2.5KHz. it's the optimum conditions of 1.2KHz frequency in detection. And for the purpose of realization on multi-point signal detection on wide scope in the underwater, in the using of WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) method and passive band-pass filter system, established arrays system and succeeded in multi-point underwater acoustic signal detection to the frequency 200Hz~1.3KHz out of the two united type FBG transducers. Additionally, it would be possible directivity detection for the object of its source as the intensity of detection signal varies with the sound source's direction and angle. From now on we prepared a new moment on the practical use study on FBG hydrophone in the future.

국내에서 개발된 단일모드 균일한 단주기형 광섬유 격자소자(FBG: Fiber Bragg Grating)를 이용하여, 수중에서 음파를 검출할 수 있는 FBG 일체형 Transducer를 설계 및 제작하였다. 이를 통하여 신호검출 시스템구성 시, 최근 제작된 Hopper WDM(특허번호 제10-1502954)을 이용하여 수중에서 다중점신호검출과 지향성 연구를 한 결과, 기존의 광섬유 센서가 지니고 있는 우수한 장점들을 모두 지니고 있을 뿐만 아니라, Sensor Arm 구성이 간단하여 실용화에 큰 장점을 지니고 있다. 제작된 FBG 일체형 트랜스듀서는 30 Hz~2.5KHz 범위에서 주파수 검출이 가능하고, 최적의 공진조건 주파수는 1.2KHz로 나타났다. 또한, 이를 이용한 수중에서 넓은 영역에 대한 다중점 신호 검출을 구현하기 위하여, WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) 방법과 Passive band-pass filter system을 이용하여 FBG Hydrophone Arrays System을 구축하고, 2개의 FBG 일체형 Transducers에서 주파수 200Hz~1.3 KHz대까지 다중점 수중 음파 신호 검출을 성공 하였다. 아울러, 음원의 방향과 각도에 따라 검출된 신호의 세기가 변화되므로 음원의 물체에 대한 방향성 검출이 가능함으로서, 향후 FBG Hydrophone의 실용화 연구에 새로운 기틀을 마련하였다.
