Highly sensitive optical fibre Bragg grating contact pressure sensor embedded in a polymer layer: Modelling and experimental validation

This paper discusses mathematical modelling and experimental validation of a highly sensitive optical fibre Bragg grating (FBG) contact pressure sensor developed for healthcare applications. Bare FBGs are not very sensitive to pressure (∼3 × 10−3 nm/MPa) but this can be increased by embedding the FB...
