title = "Sagnac distributed FMCW birefringent fiber stress sensor",
abstract = "This paper describes a new distributed optical fiber stress sensor which consists of a birefringent fiber Sagnac ring and whose principle of operation is based on the FMCW technique. The intensity and the location of a stress applied to the fiber can be determined simultaneously by detecting the amplitude and the frequency of the beat signal which is produced by two forwardcoupled mode beams in the Sagnac ring. The system was found to have a reasonable spatial resolution of 1 meter in a sensing range of 50 meters.",
