A vibration sensing system with optical fiber speckles is demonstrated and optimized with different optical fiber diameters and speckle statistical algorithms. The types of fiber diameter and material lead to a different performance of fiber specklegram sensor (FSS), which has been experimentally explored. The signal intensity, demodulated from the speckles, is different when using multimode fibers with different diameters. At the same time, the sensing effect of different fibers depends on the speckle statistical algorithms. Accordingly, we use different statistical methods in theory and experiment to analyze the influence of fiber diameter and speckle statistical methods on the sensing performance. A vibration sensing system with optimized performance is achieved by the optimized types of optical fiber and the corresponding optimized algorithms, which are promising for sensing weak vibration, such as detecting.
