Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor for the Research of Water Level Measurement

Article Preview

Abstract:

In hydraulic engineering, hydrology and water conservancy departments focus on the water level measurements of reservoir. Water level sensor is very important to water level measurements of reservoir. This paper designs a water level sensor which is combined with elastomeric membrane and fiber grating, to eliminate the impact of temperature on the sensor through the use of self-compensating fiber grating and structural technology. The measurement of the water level sensor in the range of 0-5m tests the characteristics of the sensor and concludes the experimental curves of wavelength drift caused by water level after temperature compensation. Experimental results show that the performance of the sensor is good, that the accuracy is 0.5%, and that the resolution is 1cm and linearity is 0.999. Keywords: water level monitoring, fiber grating, sensing measurements
