description | In order to meet the needs of attitude correction of the optical fiber sensor array, an all-fiber optical sensor combined with FBG and CFBG-FP is proposed to monitor its attitude angle. The FBG sensor for pitch and roll angles detection employs a geometric model solution to shift the center wavelength of the three fiber Bragg gratings connected to it through the mass sphere, allowing for pitch and roll angle detection. Based on the magnetostrictive effect, the CFBG-FP sensor for heading angle detection employs changes of the cavity length of the chirped grating Fabry-Pérot cavity connected to its surface. The method of interpolation data processing and derivation of the attitude angle matrix is used to realize heading angle detection. The experimental results indicate that the FBG sensor for the pitch and roll angles detection has an effective detection range of 180 degrees and an angle measurement error of less than 1.5 degrees. Meanwhile, in the region beyond 10 degrees in the geomagnetic north-south direction, the angle measurement error of the CFBG-FP sensor for the heading angle detection is less than 1.3 degrees. Moreover, the impact of temperature in the system is minimized, demonstrating the validity of this combined fiber optical approach in the attitude angle measurements. |
