Vector sensing with electronic fiber speckle pattern interferometry

Abstract

In this research Electronic Fiber Speckle Pattern Interferometry (EFSPI) is proposed to investigate the area of directional sensing. Modal phasing caused speckle field phase variation was discussed and the sensor architecture based on electronic fiber speckle pattern interferometry (EFSPI) is proposed. The concept of vector sensing with EFSPI was analyzed and experimentally verified with fiber speckle interferogram results, signaling a great potential for directional sensing.
