Unlike usual spectral analysis of the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors, a novel weak pressure sensor based on the Stokes parameter of FBG is proposed in this paper. The evolution of the first normalized Stokes parameter s(1) with respect to pressure is studied theoretically and experimentally. A theoretical model for pressure sensing by use of s1 is built and numerically simulation is also carried out. The dual-wavelength analytical method is proposed to reduce the influence of Bragg wavelength drift and improve the measurement accuracy. Under the pressure conditions of 0-5 N, the experimental pressure sensitivity is 0.0754/N. Good agreements between experiment results and numerical simulations verify the feasibility of the method.
