ABSTRACT:
An optic fiber hydrophone comprises a wide spectrum optical source, a super-luminescent diode for example, associated with an optic fiber assembly comprising chiefly a side-hole optic fiber, subjected to the field of pressure, forming a sensor, transmitting the optic radiation in the slow and fast modes respectively, and a second fiber, not subjected to the field of pressure, the neutral axes of which are oriented with respect to the neutral axis of the first fiber so that the wave transmitted in slow mode in one fiber is transmitted in fast mode in the other fiber, it being possible to connect these two fibers by a polarization maintaining fiber in the event that the sensor is offset with respect to the source, a polarizing fiber enabling the creation of the interferences, and a radiation detector at the output of the fiber assembly.
