The interference fringe spectrum is demodulated by using Fourier analysis and the contrast of interference fringes is measured. The characteristics of the hydrogel coated cascaded long period gratings relative humidity sensor is investigated for humidity levels from 30% to 98%.The experimental results show that: for humidity levels from 50%RH to 98%RH,the contrast of interference fringes increases linearly as the humidity increases, with the sensitivity of 7.71*10-3/%RH.The proposed relative humidity sensor based on the hydrogel coated cascaded long period gratings show good linearity , repeatability and stability from 50% to 98%RH using the contrast of fringes
