This special apodized FBG was designed by the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Compared with conventional apodized FBG, the special apodized FBG presented was more robust in the flat-top pass-band characteristic even if the strength of grating is very week. This technology is very interesting in designing the filter for wavelength division multiplexing system.展开更多

The asymmetric F-P cavity has the extensive potential application. In this paper, the demodulation method for the wavelength shift of the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor based on the F-P cavity is demonstrated, and a theoretical formula is obtained. And the experimental results coincide well with the computational results obtained from the theoretical model.展开更多
