Abstract :
In this work, we describe a system in which a thermally tunable micro-ring resonator filter is applied to monitor spectral shifts in a FBG sensor. The system was simulated using the time interval method with a simple ring resonator thermo-optical model with experimental values. For 2.56 nm scan range at 1 Hz we predicted a time interval sensitivity of 124 μs/pm.
