여러 광섬유 센서 중에서, FBG 센서는 다중화의 큰 장점으로 인해 다른 광섬유 센서에 비해 더 활발히 연구가 진행되고 있다. 최근, FBG 센서의 적용 연구는 부착보다는 복합재료 내부에 삽입 적용되는 경우가 많아지고 있다. 하지만, FBG 센서의 삽입 시 복합재료의 강화섬유와 평행하지 않게 삽입할 경우 발생하는 센서의 복굴절 현상으로 인해 삽입에 많은 제한이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 제작이 간편하고 다중화에 영향을 받지 않으며 복합재료 내부에 삽입 시 복굴절의 영향으로부터 보다 안정한 다양한 격자 길이의 FBG 센서 제작 기법에 대해 연구하였다. 그리고, 2 가지 종류의 복합재료에 대한 성형 모니터링을 통해 제작된 센서의 신호 특성에 대해 고찰하였다.

This paper describes the flexible force sensor using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and silicone rubber for the tactile sensation to detect the distributed normal force. The newly designed FBG flexible force has simple structure and can be easily multiplexed with simple wiring compared with the other electric mechanical sensors. We designed the flexible silicone rubber transducer and found the optimum embedding position of FBG in the transducer using the finite element analysis. This flexible force sensor has good performance and is immunity to the electromagnetic field compared with any other kinds of small force sensors for tactile sensation.

The optical fiber is known for the proper sensor which can accomplish the structural health monitoring, Fiber Bragg Grating sensors are being studied more than any other fiber optic sensors due to good multiplexing capabilities. But because the signal stability of FBG sensors can be influenced by the strain gradient, it needs to analyze signal of FBG sensors. Particularly acoording to strain gradient induced by structural geometry or cracks, the spectrum peak of the FBG sensor signal can be split easily. In this paper, the spectrum analysis of the FBG sensor signal was performed and the region of embedment of FBG sensors was determined in $H_2$ pressure vessel by numerical method.

In this article, a smart multifunctional optical system-on-a-chip (SOC) sensor platform is presented and its application for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor interrogation in optical sensor networks is investigated. The smart SOC sensor platform consists of a superluminescent diode as a broadband source, a tunable microelectromechanical system (MEMS) based Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter, photodetectors, and an integrated microcontroller for data acquisition, processing, and communication. Integrated with a wireless sensor network (WSN) module in a compact package, a smart optical sensor node is developed. The smart multifunctional sensor platform has the capability of interrogating different types of optical fiber sensors, including Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot sensors and Bragg grating sensors. As a case study, the smart optical sensor platform is demonstrated to interrogate multiplexed FBG strain sensors. A time domain signal processing method is used to obtain the Bragg wavelength shift of two FBG strain sensors through sweeping the MEMS tunable Fabry-P$\acute{e}$rot filter. A tuning range of 46 nm and a tuning speed of 10 Hz are achieved. The smart optical sensor platform will open doors to many applications that require high performance optical WSNs.

최근 스마트 센서를 활용한 구조물의 건전성 모니터링 및 손상 탐색 기법에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서도 광섬유 센서 중 하나인 FBG(fiber Bragg grating) 센서는 경량이고, 내구성이 좋으며, 전자기적 영향이 없을 뿐 아니라 한 가닥으로 여러 지점에서의 계측이 가능한 장점을 가지고 있어 많은 연구와 적용이 시도되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 이러한 FBG 센서를 활용하여 재킷식 해양구조물에 발생하는 손상을 탐색하는 연구를 수행하였으며, 특히 구조물에서 계측된 자료로부터 여러 환경요인을 제거하고 보다 손상에 민감한 특성을 보기 위하여 주성분 분석 기법 적용에 관한 연구를 중점적으로 수행하였다. 제안한 방법의 검증을 위하여 시험조류발전소 구조물의 축소 모델을 활용하여 하중 및 온도 등의 외부 환경이 다른 조건에서 실내 실험을 수행하였고, 이로부터 본 논문에서 제안한 방법이 외부 환경의 영향을 최소화하여 보다 손상을 민감하게 탐색함을 확인하였다.

Measurement of blade strain with sensors directly installed on the blade has one critical issue, how to send the sensor signal to the ground. Strain-gauges have been dominantly used to directly measure stress of a blade and either a slip ring or a telemetry system has to be used to send measured signal to the ground. However, both systems have many inherent problems and sometimes very severe limitations to be practically used. In this paper, new on-line strain monitoring method using. FBG(Fiber Bragg Grating) sensors and a beam coupler is introduced. Measurement of rotor stress using FBG sensors is nothing new, but unlike other system which installs all necessary instruments on the rotor and use telemetry system to send data to the ground, this system makes use of light's unique characteristic - light travels through space. In this new approach, single optical fiber with many FBG sensors is installed on the blade and all other necessary instruments can be installed at ground thereby giving tremendous advantages over slip ring or telemetry system. A reference sensor is also introduced to compensate the beam coupler's transmission loss change due to rotation. The suggested system's good performance is demonstrated with experiments.

Smart structure that contains sensors, which are either embedded in a composite material or attached to a structure, is currently receiving considerable attention. Fiber Bragg grating sensor, one of the optical fiber sensors, has been widely used to sense strain and temperature for smart structures since both parameters change the resonant frequency of the grating. In this paper, according to the various heating and cooling conditions the thermal behavior of unidirectional composite material was monitored by embedding the fiber Bragg grating sensors in the longitudinal and transverse directions of unidirectional composites. The thermal behavior of unidirectional composite material was monitored for various heating and cooling rates and applied pressure. It was found that the thermal behavior was unaffected by pressure variations and heating and cooling rates applied to the composites. The thermal strains were measured by considering the shift in Bragg wavelength that was generated by the thermal expansion of composite specimen. The longitudinal and transverse C.T.E.'s were also obtained from the corresponding temperature-thermal strain curves.

Vibration and deformation sensing control of lightweight structures using optical fiber sensor technology is introduced in this presentation. This paper shows several examples of vibration control and deformation estimation for structures using these optical fiber sensor systems. Among various optical fiber sensors, in this paper, two types of optical fiber sensors, Fabry-Perot Interferometer(EFPI) and Fiber Bragg Grating(FBG) sensors, are mainly dealt with. Fiber optic sensors show many advantages over conventional strain gages for the measurement of vibration and deformation of lightweight structures.
