Paper Abstract
An optoelectronic system is developed to measure the motions and strains of the rotor blades of a helicopter in research.
The motion parameters, including the flap, lag and pitch angles, are measured by two-dimensional position sensitive
detectors (PSDs) responding to the changes in position of the light emitting points mounted on the surface of blades. The
strains on blades are measured by Fiber Bragg Gratings. Test data show that there are good linear relationships between
angles and their related voltages. Less than 1% of angle measurement error is achieved within the measuring range. The
FBG data are consistent with that of the strain gauge, with linear correlation coefficient of about 0.999. Besides, the
strain measurement is reproducible, with relative deviation of only 1.22% between twice strain measurements. It is
concluded that the motions and strains can be measured accurately.
