Patent
Coherent reflectometric fiber Bragg grating sensor array
TL;DR: In this paper, a demultiplexing of the return light from a light source is done by modulating the light input into the input end of the array with a pseudo random bit sequence and correlating the output with a time-shifted version of the pseudo-random bit sequence to isolate the part of the output caused by that reflector.
Patent
Adaptive polarization diversity detection scheme for coherent communications and interferometric fiber sensors
TL;DR: In this article, an adjustable birefringent element in series with a linear beam splitter forms an elliptical-polarization beam-splitter, which controllably evolves the states of polarization of two input signals.
Patent
Serial interferometric fiber-optic sensor array
Alan D. Kersey,Anthony Dandridge +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a serial interferometric fiber-optic sensor array configuration is proposed, in which a small portion of the optical power in the input fiber is tapped-off to a long output fiber at tap points between adjacent sensor elements and at the tap points before the first and after the last sensor elements.
Patent
System and method for minimizing input polarization-induced phase noise in an interferometric fiber-optic sensor depolarized input light
TL;DR: In this paper, a system and method for minimizing polarization-induced phase noise in an interferometric fiber sensor is described, which includes an optical source of light, a single mode input fiber, and means coupled between the optical source and the input fiber for scrambling the polarization state of the light from the source at a first frequency to effectively produce and pass depolarized light to the input fibre, detection means responsive to the interference pattern for developing a photocurrent signal averaged over a period of time longer than the period of the first frequency.
Patent
Inline fiber optic sensor arrays with delay elements coupled between sensor units
TL;DR: In this paper, an improved inline fiber optic sensor array is achieved by packaging a number of fiber optic sensors such that each sensor unit incorporates a complete functional sensor and adjacent sensors are separated by a delay element.
