    Abstract: A sensing system including a sensor having an enclosure that defines a chamber, a fiber optic segment extending from outside the enclosure into the chamber, and a sequence of optical processing elements within the chamber. The elements include a fiber Bragg grating, a polarizer, a side hole fiber, and a mirror. A light source is arranged to direct light to the sensor(s). A spectral analyzer is arranged to detect light reflected back from the sensor(s). The fiber Bragg grating substantially reflects a first spectral envelope while transmitting the remainder of the optical spectrum to the polarizer and side hole fiber. The polarizer, side hole fiber, and mirror cooperate to return an optical signal within a second spectral envelope. The characteristic wavelength of a peak in the first spectral envelope is highly sensitive to temperature and relatively weakly sensitive to pressure. The period of the optical signal within the second spectral envelope is highly sensitive to pressure and relatively weakly sensitive to temperature. The spectral analyzer measures these spectral components to simultaneously derive a measure of temperature and pressure that effectively compensates for temperature-pressure cross-sensitivity of the sensor(s).

    Abstract: A sensing fibre for use in a distributed temperature sensing system comprises an optical fibre to be deployed in a measurement region in which a temperature measurement is to be made, which incorporates a reflective element, such as a join between portions of fibre, and a coiled fibre portion positioned adjacent a distal side of the reflective element, the coiled fibre portion contributing substantially nothing to the spatial extent of the optical fibre when deployed. In use, the effect of any forward propagating light incident on the reflective element that is returned for detection by the system, and which saturates the detector, can be eliminated by removing the part of the detected signal that corresponds to the coiled portion, after which the detector will have recovered. The remaining parts of the signal can be used to derive the distributed temperature profile since these parts represent the whole extent of the sensing fibre owing to the lack of spatial extent of the coil. Coils can be provided on both sides of the reflective element for double-ended temperature sensing techniques.

    Abstract: The invention discloses a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) measurement method. The method measures interference power (I) of a single-path signal after the received signal is demodulated by the single-path demodulators of multipath receiving device at the receiving end. The total interference power is obtained by equipartition combining with the measured interference power of each single-path signal. The signal power (S) is obtained by measuring after maximum ratio combination of each single-path signal. The SIR of the received signal is the division of the signal power and the total interference power. An apparatus, implementing mentioned method, sets the interference power measurement-device in the RAKE combiner and the signal power measurement-device after the RAKE combiner. In this way, the interference measurement can effectively provide more information and can more really response to the channel variation.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for receiving measurements from an interferometer transducer (22) uses a broad band light beam (19A), reflected from the transducer (22), and compares it with the amplitudes of narrow band beams, derived from the reflected broad band light beam (19A), by filters (23A-23D) on different frequencies. The narrow band light beams and the broad band light beam (19A) are measured on photo detectors (22A, 21B-21E). Microprocessor (57) compares outputs of the photo detectors to interpret phase differences between signals (25, 27, 29) from the narrow band beams. A periodically operable shutter and a single photo detector (21) can also be used. Other embodiments modulate (12) the light source (10) to produce very short broad band pulses of light (36, 40) which are reflected from the transducer (22).

    Abstract: An apparatus for sensing data from a remote optical sensor 16 has its frequency stabilised by balancing the outputs of narrow band filter 28 30, spaced about a desired frequency 36 positioned at about the 3 db down points 40 of a broad band light source 10 using voltage control, current control or temperature control to vary the frequency of the wide band light source 10. Difference between the outputs through the two narrow band filters 28 30 can be used to drive an amplifier 48 to correct the frequency of the broad band light source. The outputs through the two narrow band filters 28 30 can be converted 52 to binary numbers and fed to a microprocessor 56 which is used, via analog conversion 60, to drive the amplifier 48. The broad band light source 10 can be pulse modulated 68 to provide temporally separate light pulses 92 94 through each of the narrow band filters 28 30, measured at separate times. The corrective output to the amplifier 48 can be governed by a ratio between the outputs through the narrow band filters 28 30 rather than by a difference there between.
