I have developed an optical fiber-based sensor platform that uses standard communications hardware for wavelength-multiplexed, optically-balanced, and thermally-compensated measurements of sensors arrays. This is a series of fiber optic sensor heads designed to be connected to a fiber optic sensor amplifier. The FU Series offers a wide variety of options including thrubeam, reflective, retro-reflective and definite reflective sensing heads. We first discussed the parameters of the silicon core fiber for near single-mode operation. The sensitivities of. Modern sensors optimized for a small footprint, high resolution, scalable production, and networkability are typically microelectromechanical systems.
