An optical fiber grating sensing method applied to small-scale fire source monitoring are provided, distinguishing two concepts of a spatial resolution and a perception resolution, under the premise of ensuring the spatial resolution of a traditional fiber Bragg grating sensing system, only increase the number of fiber Bragg gratings covered by a single pulsed optical signal without changing a pulse width of a pulsed optical signal, so as to improve the perception resolution of the system without increasing the requirements for a hardware circuit, and truly shorten an interval between adjacent fiber Bragg gratings. Improving the perception resolution of the system, which not only ensures the spatial resolution of the system, but also realizes the monitoring of small-scale fire sources; by adopting a simple feature extraction algorithm to obtain fire temperature information in different areas, the temperature detection speed of the system is fast.
