Research abstract
Freedom Photonics proposes to develop a pressure sensor component suitable for use measuring absolute and differential pressures related to both electrohydrostatic actuators and fuel pressure monitoring onboard modern military airframes. Leveraging our portfolio of Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR) technology and optoelectronic components, we will design an interrogation system compatible with the developed sensor architecture for use in both localized and centralized topologies. Furthermore, the sensor interrogation system will have the capability to be extended to perform additional distributed sensing of temperature and strain throughout the airframe when coupled to appropriate sensor components.
