ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber coil assembly comprising two optically interconnected optical fiber coils or coil parts (22, 23) rigidly supported in predetermined positional relationship by respective rigid support means so constructed and arranged that static or quasi-static pressure (P) applied to the assembly produces a decrease in the path length of one of the coils or coil parts, and an increase in the path length of the other.
