Abstract

Abstract

Recently, the integration technique of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors and distributed optical fiber sensors has attracted extensive attention. However, it is unknown about coupling properties between FBG and Brillouin signal. In this paper, we investigate the effects of optical grating types, wavelength and reflectivity and exposure-induced refractive index of optical fiber on stimulated Brillouin signal. Meanwhile, the influence of spatial resolution on positioning of FBG is discussed. Experimental results show that the sharp reflected peak from FBG occurs in the hybrid system of FBG sensor and Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA), while no reflected peak occurs for chirped grating and long period grating, as well as exposure-induced refractive index of optical fibers. FBG reflectivity has no connection with power spectrum of simulated Brillouin scattering. It is also shown that when the wavelength of FBG is close to 1 550 nm, the influence on stimulated Brillouin signal is the largest. A positioning error of approximate 4 cm is obtained among a sensing range of 8 m, which is independent on the spatial resolution.
