Abstract

Optical fiber Fabry-Perot (F-P) sensors have been used in various on-line monitoring of physical parameters such as acoustics, temperature and pressure. In this paper, a wavelet phase extracting demodulation algorithm for optical fiber F-P sensing is first proposed. In application of this demodulation algorithm, search range of scale factor is determined by estimated cavity length which is obtained by fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. Phase information of each point on the optical interference spectrum can be directly extracted through the continuous complex wavelet transform without de-noising. And the cavity length of the optical fiber F-P sensor is calculated by the slope of fitting curve of the phase. Theorical analysis and experiment results show that this algorithm can greatly reduce the amount of computation and improve demodulation speed and accuracy.
