Abstract

A Fabry-Perot sensor for measuring an inclination. The sensor is fixed on a static detected object, where a mass block is flexibly connected to a top plate, thus the line between the center of gravity of the mass block and the connecting point on the top plate is perpendicular to the horizontal plane. This creates a Fabry-Perot cavity between a reflecting surface disposed at one end of the mass block and the end of an optic fiber. When the detected object is tilted, the line between the center of gravity of the mass block and its connecting point on the top plate remains perpendicular and the F-P cavity length will have a variation in length. The change of cavity length is measured in accordance with the Fabry-Perot principle, thereby the tilting angle, which is the inclination of the detected object, of the mass block is measured.
