Abstract
The need for an early detection of disaster has grown vital because of the rise in natural disaster events occurred in Malaysia recently, such as fire, landslides, and floods. Thus, an early warning system could somehow reduce the seriousness of disaster. Due to this, Polymer Optical Fiber (POF) has garnered a lot of interest, because of its promising features especially for becoming a sensing device. This paper study the effectiveness of polymer FBG sensor in Fiber-To-The Home (FTTH) network. The simulation was done using OptiSystem7.0 software. The changes of power(dBm) due to the temperature changes was tabulated. PMMA has shown a significant change in power with averagely 1.123 dBm drop for every 10°C increase of temperature. This indicates that PMMA have promising characteristics to become the main material for fabrication of FBG sensor.
