    Area of Science:

    • Optoelectronics
    • Sensor Technology
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Traditional pressure sensors can be affected by environmental factors like temperature and external forces, leading to inaccurate readings.
    • Optical fiber sensors offer potential advantages in harsh environments due to their immunity to electromagnetic interference.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a robust diaphragm-type pressure sensor with enhanced accuracy.
    • To mitigate measurement errors caused by fluctuations in light intensity.

    Main Methods:

    • A three-optical-fiber configuration was employed, including transmitting, receiving, and reference fibers.
    • Light was projected onto a pressure-receiving diaphragm via the transmitting fiber.
    • A reference fiber was used to transmit light from an LED back and forth along the same path as the signal fibers to compensate for intensity variations.
