Abstract
An acoustic emission (AE) linear location system is proposed, which employs fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) as AE sensors. It is demonstrated that the FBG wavelength can be modulated as static case when the grating length is much shorter than the AE wavelength. In addition, an improved AE location method based on Gabor wavelet transform (WT) and threshold analysis is represented. The method is testified through AE linear location experiments based on a tunable narrow-band laser interrogation system using ultra-short FBG sensors as AE sensors. Results of the experiments show that 86% of the linear location errors are less than 10mm.
