Abstract
The thermal cycling process experienced by spacecraft during orbital operation would lead to deterioration of the demodulation performance of fiber Bragg grating (FBG). A new demodulation method based on Fabry-Perot (F-P) filter and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) gas is proposed to improve the performance. The method skillfully utilizes the self-marked HCN absorption lines as absolute wavelength references. In the thermal cycling environment whose temperature ranging from 5°Cto 65°C,the fluctuation of demodulation wavelength reduces to ± 2.6 pm, which is improved by 3.1 times compared with traditional method. The proposed method also shows a good robustness in the cases of weak light source intensity and poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of HCN spectrum.
