A double-mass block acceleration sensor based on FBG

A double-mass block acceleration sensor based on Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is proposed to meet the needs of acceleration sensors in vibration monitoring. The proposed sensor is composed of FBG, beam and double mass block, and the FBG is fixed in the middle of the upper surface of the dual mass block by epoxy glue. Through theoretical analysis and experimental verification, the resonant frequency, sensitivity and lateral anti-interference ability of the sensor have been investigated. The experimental results show that the natural frequency of the sensor is 1000 Hz, the sensitivity is 26.7 pm/g when the frequency is 250 Hz, and the lateral anti-interference degree is less than 6%. And the sensor structure in this paper is simple and easy to fabricate. Therefore, it has a great application prospect in the vibration monitoring of bridges, roads and buildings.
