ABSTRACT With the development and progress of the fiber grating technology, the fiber grating has been more and more famous in application fields like optical fiber communication, optical fiber laser and optical fiber sensors. This paper is focused on the long period fiber grating. Deep research has been done on the coupling theory and sensing performance of long period fiber grating. The main work done in the paper includes the aspects below: Research has been done on the theory of fiber grating mode coupling theory. The theory is derived based on the three layer fiber mode. The fiber grating coupling mode and field expressions are discussed. We deduced the coupling efficiencies between the fiber core guide modes itself and the clad coupling modes. The coupling modes of long period fiber grating are studied based on the coupling equations. The transmission spectra of long period fiber grating are simulated with the transfer matrix method. The sensing characteristics of LPFG are studied based on the derivation of the coupling mode theory and simulation results of the transmission spectra. The factors like length, period and the refractive index modulation depth are discussed. The refractive index change infect on the transmission spectra is analyzed. A solution concentration sensing system is designed and improved. A fixing groove is made to prevent the fiber grating from the impact of the stress. The temperature maintain 21? in the progress of the experiment. The transmission spectra between 1350nm to 1650nm are measured. The study shows the transmitted optical power varies linearly along with the concentration change. We have got the optical power expression through the linear fit of the experimental data. The experiment system is improved so that we can monitor the concentration change visa optical power change at one certain wavelength. Experiment shows, the optical power expression could be obtained. The measure range reaches 40g/L with a reso
