Although the intensity fiber curvature sensor can be used for curvature monitoring on the ground, its sensing mechanism is still under investigation. This paper establishes the mathematical model of optical power relative loss and bending radius during deformation of the fiber sensitive region and uses the optical power meter to measure light intensity loss in the sensitive region, which verifies the correctness of the model and reveals the sensing mechanism of the intensity fiber curvature sensor, then optimizes the sensor signal conditioning circuit, applies the sensor to the single-point deformation curvature measurement, and analyzes its measurement error and accuracy. It is proved that the linear measurement range of the sensor is improved when compared with existing similar products.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s19051115","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,5]],"date-time":"2019-03-05T11:19:50Z","timestamp":1551784790000},"page":"1115","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Research on Optical Fiber Sensor Based on Underwater Deformation Measurement"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Jiawang","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhoushan 316021, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1579-3755","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chen","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhoushan 316021, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yue","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhoushan 316021, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yonglei","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhoushan 316021, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7045-6711","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yongqiang","family":"Ge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ocean College, Zhejiang University, Zhoushan 316021, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"49","article-title":"Development and Countermeasures of Marine Underwater Engineering Technology","volume":"16","author":"Shiming","year":"1997","journal-title":"Ocean Sci."},{"key":"ref_2","first-page":"44","article-title":"Discussion on underwater deformation and leakage detection method for seismic shell equipment","volume":"39","author":"Zhang","year":"2017","journal-title":"Ship Sci.
