All-fiber quasi-distributed polarimetric temperature sensor

This paper presents an all-fiber design of a quasi-distributed polarimetric temperature sensor array that utilizes commercially available single polarization and high birefringence fibers. The modulation depth of temperature induced loss and the operational temperature range of individual sensors in the Read More …

In-line short cavity Fabry-Perot strain sensor for quasi distributed measurement utilizing standard OTDR

This paper presents an in-line, short cavity Fabry-Perot fiber optic strain sensor. A short air cavity inside a single-mode fiber is created by the fusion splicing of appropriately micro machined fiber tips. A precise tuning of the cavity length is Read More …
