Signal Recognition Basing on Optical Fiber Vibration Sensor

Miniature multicore optical fiber vibration sensor.

We demonstrate a compact and versatile interferometric vibration sensor that operates in reflection mode. To build the device, a short segment of symmetric strongly coupled multicore optical fiber (MCF) is fusion spliced to a single-mode optical fiber (SMF). One end of the MCF segment is cleaved and placed in a cantilever position. Due to the SMF-MCF configuration, only two supermodes are excit...

A Fiber Optical Sensor For Non–Contact Vibration Measurements

Vibration tests are widely employed in many industrial fields, and in particular in aerospace industry to evaluate the mechanical behavior of parts for aircrafts and satellites. Usually, these tests are carried out with shakers, while inertial accelerometers are used to measure the shaker table acceleration from which the vibration amplitude is computed. Some applications require the measuremen...

Fiber-Optic Vibration Sensor Based on Multimode Fiber

The purpose of this paper is to present a fiberoptic vibration sensor based on the monitoring of the mode distribution in a multimode optical fiber. Detection of vibrations and their parameters is possible through observation of the output speckle pattern from the multimode optical fiber. A working experimental model has been built in which all used components are widely available and cheap: a ...
