## Abstract The effect of spectral shadowing and multiple reflections in a serial fiber Bragg grating (FBG)‐array are investigated. The wavelength detection errors for the distal FBG (reflectivity = 1%) in a 50‐FBG array are 18 pm and 12 pm for spectral shadowing and multiple reflections, respectiv

Abstract
The performance of a time‐division‐multiplexed fiber Bragg grating sensor array that uses a tunable laser source has been investigated. It was found that the wavelength detection accuracy is affected by the extinction ratio of the optical pulse modulator used for input pulse generation. Experiments with a 4‐FBG sensor array demonstrated a strain resolution of 0.7 με with an optical pulse modulator of −24‐dB extinction ratio. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
