Self-Vernier Effect-Assisted Optical Fiber Sensor Based on Microwave Photonics and Its Machine Learning Analysis

Chen Zhu et al.

Summary: The optical Vernier effect is a hot topic in recent years as it enhances the sensitivity of optical fiber interferometric sensors. However,this effect requires precise integration and complicated processing for spectrum extraction. In this article, a new concept of the self-Vernier effect is proposed for sensitivity improvement of optical fiber sensors and a new demodulation approach using machine learning analysis is demonstrated. The self-Vernier effect is obtained by overlapping microwave interferograms and the machine learning analysis reduces the need for a wide frequency observation window and numerous sampling points.
