Abstract | ||||
The technologies of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) have been theoretically studied and analyzed for multiplexing fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in a single optical fiber. This method allows a single fiber to carry many of identical FBGs, making this sensor more appropriate in the nuclear reactors. The analysis demonstrates that the multiplexing capacity can be incredibly enhance small data rates and high channel spacing. The interference effect among FBGs multi-reflections channels must be taken into account. This paper simulate WDM based FBG for a channel spacing of 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8, 1 nm Gaussian apodized FBGs at data rates of 2.5, 10, 40,100,160, 250 Gb/s respectively for nuclear applications. All simulations were performed in Optisystem software. | ||||
