ABSTRACT:
Wavelength division multiplexed Sagnac distributed sensor systems that allow the determination of the position and amplitude of a frequency dependent environmental effect acting on the optical path of Sagnac loops. The sensor includes two Sagnac interferometers operating at different wavelengths and having optically spaced combining couplers and optical loops which include as portions thereof, the optical path. The outputs of the Sagnac interferometers are summed to determine the relative amplitude of the sensed effect and compared to determine its position on the optical path.
