The evolution of the P L with wavelength with respect to transversal pressure is studiedtheoretically and experimentally. A theoretical model for transversal pressure sensing by use of P L is built and numerical simulation is also carried out. The theoretical analysis suggests that the P L of FBG is more suitable for measuring transverse pressure than single spectral analysisin the low pressure region because of its greater sensitivity. Under the transverse pressure conditions of 0~ 180 N, the demodulation is realized by use of the centroid height and the wavelength spacing of the twopeaksrespectively. The resolutions of 0. 06 dB/N for small pressure (0~ 80 N) and 2.5 pm/ N for large pressure (81~ 180 N) are demonstrated. Good agreements between experimental results and numerical simulations verify the feasibility of the m
