Paper Abstract
A high dynamic range, short response time distributed fiber sensor for control and surveyance applications is presented. It uses the differential mode delay between the LP01 and LP11 modes of a conventional singlemode communication fiber used at 800 nm wavelength. Baseband readout of the relative phase and amplitude delivers information on the location of an event and on the magnitude of the measurand activating a microbending transducer which couples the originally excited dominant mode to the LP11 mode. The spatial separation and focalisation of the two modes can be performed with a 40 dB isolation by means of a monolithic microoptic component acting on the evanescent fields. A dedicated vector voltmeter with 0.1° phase accuracy at 10 MHz provides a transitometry spatial resolution of the order of 10 meters.
