摘要
A multiplexed white light interferometric fiber optic twin-sensor-array was designed to monitor the structural health of large buildings.In this sensing system,based on a Michelson interferometer,an optical path matching technique is used to demodulate each twin-sensor.Each twin-sensor-array consists of a 2×N sensing element linked by a 3 dB coupler.When one of the twin-sensor is used to measure strain,variations caused by temperature can be compensated for by referencing the other twin-sensor.The multiplexing capacity of the sensing scheme has been analyzed and experimental results with a 2×3 twin-sensor-array are given.
