Abstract
Apparatuses relate generally to a fiber optic cable. In such an apparatus, a housing has a channel or bore for receipt of a portion of the fiber optic cable having a fiber optic sensor. An acoustic interface layer is coupled to a surface of the housing to reduce stress wave coupling loss at an interface between the fiber optic sensor and a host structure surface. In another such apparatus, a patch structure is for a fiber optic cable coupled to a fiber optic voltage conditioner. In yet another such apparatus, a fiber optic voltage conditioner is coupled for optical communication to a fiber optic cable having a Fiber Bragg Grating sensor. The fiber optic voltage conditioner includes a tunable light source having a broadband light source or a gain medium configured to provide a narrowband light signal from a broadband light signal for providing to the fiber optic cable.
