Abstract

This study investigates the behaviour of resonant wavelengths of Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) inscribed within optically isotropic fibers under transverse loading, both in free and embedded conditions. A numerical-analytical approach is employed, utilizing the finite element method to calculate strain tensor components in the optical fiber core, followed by an analytical determination of resonant wavelengths and reflected FBG spectrum shape. The research demonstrates the influence of the ratio of host material and optical fiber elastic moduli on the birefringence level in FBG area under transversal loading. Based on analytical model of FBG spectrum simulation the discrepancy between analytically calculated and experimentally recorded resonant wavelength shifts in FBG embedded within isotropic material under varying transverse load levels is demonstrated.
