The needs for a structural health monitoring (SHM) system for civil and building structures are emerging (Mita, 1999). Among various types of sensors used to monitor structural health, the Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG)–based optical sensor has been considered to be one of the most promising sensors (Cho...
