Abstract
In this work, we designed a novel hybrid of free-space optics (FSO) communication and intensity and wavelength division multiplexing (IWDM)-fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor system over a single shared FSO transmission channel for both optical and sensor signal transmission. In the proposed system, we use one broadband light source and one FSO link for both optical and FBG sensor signal transmission, which significantly reduces the cost of system installation and complexity. Besides, the FSO transmission channel is used to solve the problem of geographical constraints when the environment is difficult to install the fiber. In addition, IWDM is one of the best multiplexing technique to increase the sensor number by more than two times the conventional wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) method. Besides, to solve the overlap spectra problem of IWDM based FBG sensor system, we proposed the stacked gated recurrent unit (SGRU) algorithm with the neural network (NN) profile method. The results prove that the proposed SGRU with the NN profile method improves the accuracy of wavelength detection techniques with the Gaussian profile method. Moreover, the FSO transmission channel achieves a clear eye diagram even the system is a hybrid of optical communication and FBG sensors system.
