An optical interrogator, also known as measurement unit or data acquisition system, is an optoelectronic instrument, which allows the reading of optical fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors in static and dynamic monitoring applications. FBG sensors are easy to install, electromagnetically safe and can also be used in highly explosive atmospheres, but having the right interrogator in place is important to retrieve the. Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors have emerged as advanced tools for monitoring a wide range of physical parameters in various fields, including structural health, aerospace, biochemical, and environmental applications. Their unique attributes—compactness, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and multiplexing capabilities—make them a compelling choice for industries ranging from. Following the early work on the formation of photogenerated gratings in germanosilicate optical fiber by sustained exposure of the core to the interfer ence pattern produced by oppositely propagating modes of argon-ion laser radiation that was first reported in 1978 (HilI et al., 1978), the. Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) technology is one of the most popular choices for optical fiber sensors for strain or temperature measurements due to their simple manufacture, as we will see later on, and due to the relatively strong reflected signal. They are formed by a periodic modulations of the.
