Abstract
A fiber-optic salinity and temperature measurement includes a first Fabry-Perot interferometer and a second Fabry-Perot interferometer. Each of the Fabry-Perot interferometers includes a first optical fiber fusion spliced to a second optical fiber such that a relatively large cavity is formed between the fibers. The relatively large cavity forms the measurement chamber for each Fabry-Perot interferometer. The input port on each of the Fabry-Perot interferometers is coupled to an optical splitter such that a single optical signal input is provided to each Fabry-Perot interferometer. The output port on each of the Fabry-Perot interferometers is coupled to an optical combiner that combines the interference signal received from each of the Fabry-Perot interferometers. An optical signal analyzer coupled to an output port of the optical combiner determines the salinity and temperature of a sample material in the large cavity of the second Fabry-Perot interferometer.
