Working Principle of Optical Fiber Digital Sensors

Home / Working Principle of Optical Fiber Digital Sensors

Radiation absorption creates electronic excited states that are trapped by localized defects for extended periods of time. Fiber optic sensors are used in a wide range of fields, including: Structural Health Monitoring: Real-time monitoring of the physical condition of structures. Jose Miguel Lopez-Higuera: Handbook of Optical Fiber Sensing Technology, John Wiley & Sons, 2002. Among the reasons why optical fibers are such an attractive are their low loss, high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), small size, light weight, safety, relatively low cost, low maintenance, etc.
