How do fiber optic sensors measure distance

Home / How do fiber optic sensors measure distance

Extrinsic fiber-optic sensors use an, normally a one, to transmit light from either a non-fiber optical sensor, or an electronic sensor connected to an optical transmitter. An example is the measurement of temperature insideby using a fiber to transmit into a radiation located outside the engine.

Fiber-optic sensor

Extrinsic fiber-optic sensors use an optical fiber cable, normally a multimode one, to transmit modulated light from either a non-fiber optical sensor, or an electronic sensor connected to an optical transmitter. A major benefit of extrinsic sensors is their ability to reach places which are otherwise inaccessible. An example is the measurement of temperature inside aircraft jet engines by using a fiber to transmit radiation into a radiation pyrometer located outside the engine. Extrinsic sensors can also be used in the same w
