How do fiber optic sensors wear out
Radiation absorption creates electronic excited states that are trapped by localized defects for extended periods of time. Over time, this laser loses power due to natural wear of the laser medium. This results in a weaker transmitted signal, which can lead to: Using Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM), you can read the transmit power (TX. A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). It's a device that converts light rays into electronic signals. They can detect very small objects, are particularly flexible to mount and are extremely resistant in harsh environments – even in high temperatures. Among the reasons why optical fibers are such an attractive are their low loss, high bandwidth, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI), small size, light weight, safety, relatively low cost, low maintenance, etc. At the heart of this technology is the optical fiber itself -- a hair-thin.

There are many types of fiber optic sensors
Optical fibers can be used as sensors to measure, , and other quantities by modifying a fiber so that the quantity to be measured modulates the,,, or transit time of light in the fiber. Sensors that vary the intensity of light are the simplest, since only a simple source and detector are required. A particularly useful feature of intrinsic fiber-optic sensors is that they can, if required, provide distributed sensing over very large distances.
