Abstract

The preliminary results on the application of optical fiber sensor(OFS) for locations of ultrasonic signals in underwater are presented and analyzed. The OFS utilizing the principle of Sagnac interferometry was designed and the hollowed cylindrical mandrel wound by single mode optical fiber was used as sensing component. The ultrasonic signal source was simulated by the PZT actuator operated with function generator. It has been shown that the OFS could detect the signals less affected by ultrasonic path comparing to conventional acousto-electric sensor and accurate location of ultrasonic signal could be carried out using two OFSs.
