Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) exhibits strong resistance to electromagnetic interference and excellent linear strain response, making it highly promising for structural health monitoring (SHM) in pavement. This research investigates the strain transfer characteristics of embedded FBG in pavement. This research focuses on a desensitization method to develop a wide-range FBG sensor for extra-large strain monitoring, which is an essential requirement in large scale infrastructures or for some special occasions.

Analysis of the strain transfer characteristics of fiber Bragg grating can be categorized into three aspects: theoretical solution, numerical simulation, and experimental testing. Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) exhibits strong resistance to electromagnetic interference and excellent linear strain response, making it highly promising for structural health monitoring (SHM) in pavement. in electronic engineering from the Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio de Janeiro in 1975 and a M.

The fiber optic grating sensor structure is very simple and can achieve a small size. It is also characterized by high reliability, high accuracy, strong waterproof performance, and high sensitivity. It can be used to sense and measure physical quantities such as stress, strain or temperature with high sensitivity and measurement range. Fiber Bragg grating has embraced the area of fiber optics since the early days of its discovery, and most fiber optic sensor systems today make use of fiber Bragg grating technology. Following the early work on the formation of photogenerated gratings in germanosilicate optical fiber by sustained exposure of the core to the interfer ence pattern produced by oppositely propagating modes of argon-ion laser radiation that was first reported in 1978 (HilI et al.
