SENSOR INTRODUCTION
A sensor is a device that produces a measurable
response to a change in a physical condition,
such as temperature or thermal conductivity, or
to a change in chemical concentration. Sensors
are particularly useful for making in-situ
measurements such as in industrial process
control.
 Sensors are responsible for converting some
type of physical phenomenon into a quantity
measurable by a data acquisition (DAQ) system.

OPTICAL SENSOR
INTRODUCTION
 NEW

REVOLUTION OF OPTICAL
FIBER SENSORS
 IT IS A “SPIN-OFF” FROM OTHER
OPTICAL TECHNOLOGIES

WORKING PRINCIPLE

• LIGHT BEAM CHANGES BY THE 
PHENOMENA THAT IS BEING MEASURED
• LIGHT MAY CHANGE IN ITS FIVE OPTICAL 
                                                                               
PROPERTIES i.e INTENSITY, PHASE, 
POLARIZATION,WAVELENGTH AND 
SPECTRAL DISTRIBUTION  
6
CLASSIFICATION
OPTICAL SENSORS ARE OF TWO TYPES


EXTRINSIC SENSORS



INTRINSIC SENSORS

7
EXTRINSIC SENSORS

WHERE THE LIGHT LEAVES THE FEED OR
TRANSMITTING FIBER TO BE CHANGED BEFORE
 IT CONTINUES TO THE DETECTOR BY MEANS 
OF THE RETURN OR RECEIVING FIBER 
8
INTRINSIC SENSORS

INTRINSIC SENSORS ARE DIFFERENT IN THAT THE
LIGHT BEAM DOES NOT LEAVE THE OPTICAL FIBER
BUT IS CHANGED WHILST STILL CONTAINED WITHIN IT.

Sensors are particularly useful for making in-situ measurements such as in industrial process control.  Sensors are responsible for converting some type of physical phenomenon into a quantity measurable by a data acquisition (DAQ) system.  3
