Course Objective
1. to understand the advantages of fiber optic sensor technology such as immunity to electromagnetic interference, high bandwidth, small size, multiplexing, ruggedness, reliability, etc.
2. to know the basic operating principles upon which many fiber optic sensors are based and classification of fiber optic sensors
3. to become familiar with fiber sensors’ capabilities of characterizing various physical parameters such as temperature, pressure, strain, vibration, acceleration, rotation, position, acoustics, water vapor content, chemical concentration, etc.
4. to understand how this technology is being applied today and trends of evolution.
