Research abstract
WE PROPOSE TO INVESTIGATE SEVERAL NEW CONFIGURATIONS OF OPTICAL FIBER SENSORS FOR THE DETERMINATION OF TEMPERATURE. WE EXPECT OUR NEW DESIGN TO HAVE A TEMPERATURE ACCURACY OF 0.01 DEG CELSIUS. THE PROPOSED SENSOR COULD BE USED TO MICROMETEOROLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS OF THE ATMOSPHERE. THIS SENSOR HAS AN ADVANTAGE OVER QUARTZ-CRYSTAL SENSORS, BECAUSE ALL POWER AND MEASUREMENT ELECTRONICS ARE REMOTELY LOCATED FROM THE SENSOR TIP. THE PROPOSED METHOD COMPLIES WITH THE REQUIRED GOAL BUT DOES NOT USE THE QUARTZ CRYSTAL METHOD. THE PROPOSED METHOD WILL HAVE ADDED BENEFIT TO DOD FOR OTHER TEMPERATURE SENSING APPLICATIONS.
