Abstract

A physical quantity measuring system includes an optical source which emits a measurement light to fiber Bragg grating (FBG) lines containing FBGs connected in cascade by an optical fiber, an optical switch including a common port for receiving the measurement light from the optical source, and input/output ports connected to the FBG lines, the optical switch outputting the measurement light, from the common port to each of the input/output ports at different time points, a wavelength separator which receives light reflected from the respective FBGs of the FBG lines, and separating the reflected light into a plurality of component lights having predetermined wavelengths, after the measurement light is output from the input/output ports, and optical receivers which receives the component lights from the wavelength separator and detects light intensities of the component lights.
