摘要: An example method injects a source light into a sensor cavity body, configured with an optical path including first and second reflecting surfaces, and structured to change the optical path distance between the first and second surface in response to subject condition. Sensor reflection optical signals are received from the senor cavity body, with first reflection signals from the first reflecting surface and se second reflection signals from the second reflecting surface and routed to an interferometer with a first optical path to a first reflector and a second optical path to a second reflector. Interferometer reflector signals, including reflections of the sensor reflection signals from the first reflector and the second reflector are received and phase shift coupled into separate channel signals, including first channel signals, second channel signals, and third channel signals, mutually spaced with respect to phase. A computerized dynamic obtains dynamic measurement of the subject condition, through detecting changes in the optical path distance based on the first, second, and third channel signals.

摘要: Forming a light pulse having a plurality of time-dependent frequency components such as a chirped light pulse or a light pulse group and superposing reflected light from different portions of an optical fiber allows detection of changes in effective optical path differences due to physical parameters in the environment of the optical fiber by sensing the optical interference pattern of each light frequency and wavelength. The development of a plurality of interference patterns from each light pulse provides sufficient information for robust demodulation by known methods to produce signals having good fidelity to variations in the physical parameters of interest, particularly vibrations and acoustic waves. The location of the measured physical parameter along the optical fiber can be determined from the time difference between injecting the light pulse and detection of a reflection or Rayleigh backscattering and diffraction index of the optical fiber.

摘要: A serial weak FBG interrogator is disclosed. The serial weak FBG interrogator may include a CW tunable laser or pulsed laser utilized as a laser source and an EDFA. The serial weak FBG interrogator may also be an interrogation of a single sensor system by utilization of a DFB laser which utilizes a single sensor, which may be an interferometer sensor, an extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer or a wavelength-modulated sensor. The serial weak FBG interrogator may also include a computer system or CSPU.

摘要: A system for measuring pressure, temperature or both includes a diaphragm that responds to a change in temperature or pressure, and a base connected to the diaphragm that has a sapphire element. Between the diaphragm and the base is a cavity. An optical fiber that conducts light reflected off of a surface of the diaphragm is adjacent the cavity. An interrogator is used for detecting a deflection of the diaphragm based on at least two reflected light signals having similar wavelengths and coherence lengths. A quadrature phase detection unit demodulates signals received by the interrogator.
