Abstract (EN):
A fiber-optic curvature sensor based on a core offset single-mode fiber (SMF) combined with a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) is presented. The FBG cladding modes are efficiently excited by the large core misalignment. The curvature of the fiber can be obtained by the ratio between the recoupled cladding mode power and the reflected core mode power. These measurements are independent from temperature variation.
