The structure of the FBG can vary via the refractive index, or the grating period. The grating period can be uniform or graded, and either localised or distributed in a superstructure. The refractive index has two primary characteristics, the refractive index profile, and the offset. Typically, the refractive index profile can be uniform or apodized, and the refractive index offset is positive or zero. There are six common structures for FBGs;.

Fiber optic strain sensors are an innovative solution designed to measure deformation. These sensors utilize the unique properties of light traveling through fiber optic cables to detect and quantify strain caused by environmental or structural changes. Brillouin scattering-based distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS) technologies such as Brillouin optical time domain reflectometry (BOTDR) and Brillouin optical time domain analysis (BOTDA) have broad applicability for the long term and real-time monitoring of large concrete structures, underground.

Structure-Modulated Long-Period Fiber Gratings (SM-LPFGs) represent an advancement in fiber optic sensor technology, moving beyond traditional photosensitivity-based fabrication to achieve enhanced performance through the direct physical modification of the geometry of the fiber. This review. In essence, a long period fibre grating (LPFG) is an all-fibre device with wavelength dependent loss. As a band rejection filter, all light in a spectral slice is discarded without affecting the amplitude and phase of neighbouring wavelengths, with the additional advantage of low insertion losses. In this work, we review the most important achievements of INESC TEC related to the properties and applications of arc-induced long-period fiber gratings. One remaining issue is the separation of the strain-induced wavelength shift from that induced by temperature changes.
