Abstract:
Various embodiments provide an optical sensor having an optical source, a grating arrangement optically coupled to the optical source to receive a source optical signal from the optical source, the grating arrangement including a chirped FBG having a defined spectral profile, wherein, in response to a first change in at least one parameter interacting with the chirped FBG, the defined spectral profile is shifted in a first direction relative to a reference spectral profile, and the grating arrangement is configured, in response thereto, to generate a first output optical signal corresponding to the first change, and wherein, in response to a second change in the at least one parameter interacting with the chirped FBG, the defined spectral profile is shifted in a second direction relative to the reference spectral profile, and the grating arrangement is configured, in response thereto, to generate a second output optical signal corresponding to the second change.

Claim (Index 3):
The optical sensor as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the grating arrangement further comprises a second chirped FBG configured to provide the reference spectral profile, the second chirped FBG being optically coupled to the chirped FBG,\n wherein the defined spectral profile at the original state of the chirped FBG and the reference spectral profile are shifted relative to each other in wavelength, and wherein the chirped FBG is configured, in response to the defined spectral profile being shifted in the first direction, to generate a first reflected optical signal, and the second chirped FBG is configured to transmit, based on the reference spectral profile, a portion of the first reflected optical signal as the first output optical signal, and wherein the chirped FBG is configured, in response to the defined spectral profile being shifted in the second direction, to generate a second reflected optical signal, and the second chirped FBG is configured to transmit, based on the reference spectral profile, a portion of the second reflected optical signal as the second output optical signal.
