In-service structural health monitoring of composite aircraft structures plays a key role in the
assessment of their performance and integrity. In recent years, Fibre Optic Sensors (FOS) …

Nowadays, smart composite materials embed miniaturized sensors for structural health
monitoring (SHM) in order to mitigate the risk of failure due to an overload or to unwanted …

Aircraft operators are faced with increasing requirements to extend the service life of air
platforms beyond their designed life cycles, resulting in heavy maintenance and inspection …

An ultrahigh-speed phase demodulation system was designed for the Fabry–Perot (F–P)
interferometric sensor based on fiber array parallel spectral detection. A high-power …

Erbium-doped lithium niobate on insulator (Er: LNOI) is a promising platform for photonic
integrated circuits as it adds gain to the LNOI system and enables on-chip lasers and …

FBG array sensors have been widely used in the multi-point monitoring of large structures
due to their excellent optical multiplexing capability. This paper proposes a cost-effective …

To meet the eMBB challenges in 5G, we have systematically explored the potential of the
photonics-aided mm-wave communication in terms of the wireless transmission capacity …

Force sensing is an essential requirement for dexterous robot manipulation. We describe
composite robot end-effectors that incorporate optical fibers for accurate force sensing and …

This highly comprehensive, introductory book explains the basics of structural health
monitoring aspects of composite structures. This book serve as an all-in-one reference book …

We present the design and fabrication of an on-chip FBG interrogator based on arrayed
waveguide grating (AWG) technology. The spectral overlap between adjacent channels in …
