  • Abstract
    A technique for multiplexing Bragg gratings in a fiber laser arrangement is described. This technique has successfully been used to multiplex two and three Bragg gratings with very little crosstalk. The Bragg grating laser sensors were used to measure both strain and temperature. Independent strain and temperature tuning of the gratings shows no crosstalk.<>
