Abstract
A two-dimensional cantilever vibration sensor based on Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is proposed. The proposed sensor consists of a section of optical fiber with double FBGs and three different beams. After theoretical analysis and experimental verification, the proposed sensor has a high sensitivity response. The experimental result shows that the natural frequency of the sensor in the x/y direction of vibrations is respectively 505/177 Hz. The flat frequency of the sensor is 60–150 Hz and 30–150 Hz, respectively. And the sensor’s sensitivity is respectively 125.85/82.32 pm/g in the x/y direction of vibration. Compared with the traditional cantilever beam FBG sensor, the proposed sensor has the advantages of multi-directional detection, avoiding chirp and so on. Therefore, it has great application prospects in two-dimensional vibration signal detection of bridges, roads and buildings.
