Inclination monitoring plays a significant role in research on deformation monitoring of slopes, inclination monitoring of bridges, earthquake monitoring, and other areas of monitoring. Existing electromagnetic signal-based inclinometers face practical issues such as difficulty adapting to harsh. We demonstrate a new concept for an all-fiber inclinometer based on a tapered fiber Bragg grating (tFBG) in a fiber ring laser (FRL) with the capability of measuring the tilt angle and temperature simultaneously. The sensor performance is analyzed theoretically and investigated experimentally.
