OPTICAL MEASURING SYSTEM WITH AN INTERROGATOR AND A POLYMER-BASED SINGLE-MODE FIBRE-OPTIC SENSOR SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to an optical measuring system comprising a polymer-based single-mode fibre-optic sensor system (102), an optical interrogator (101), and an optical arrangement (103) interconnecting the optical interrogator (101) and the polymer-based single-mode fibre-optic sensor system (102). The invention further relates to an optical interrogator adapted to be connected to a polymer-based single-mode fibre-optic sensor system via an optical arrangement. The interrogator comprises a broadband light source arrangement (104) and a spectrum analysing arrangement which receives and analyses light reflected from the polymer-based single-mode fibre-optic sensor system.
