Abstract
The purpose of this research is the development of a system for fabricating high-speed and long-time measurements of wide-band vibration using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) to determine the health of structures. We developed a real-time FBG interrogation system using wavelength swept laser. This system can perform real-time measurement of reflected wavelength from a multiple FBG at a temporal resolution of 0.1 ms. The authors also constructed a database system for managing the data obtained from high-speed and long-time measurement. This database system manages data using a relational database and transfers information on FBG reflected wavelengths obtained from this measurement system via the local network. We have demonstrated that this system is able to measure reflected wavelengths from a multipoint FBG at a temporal resolution of 0.1 ms over 24 hours, it was shown that this system could also monitor instantaneously applied high-speed vibrations.
