Abstract
The present invention is the optical fiber sensor, that laser pulses from a laser source are separated into a reference path and a measurement path by the second optical coupler via the first optical coupler, the first FRM is provided at an end of the reference path, the second FRM is provided at an end of the measurement path, and the reference reflected light of the first FRM and the measurement reflected light of the second FRM are interfered at the second optical coupler and are converted into three phases. The first phase pulses are transmitted to the optical synthesis section via the first optical coupler, second phase pulses are transmitted to the optical synthesis section via the first delay section, and third phase pulses are transmitted to the optical synthesis section via the second delay section. The time division pulse train is outputted from the optical synthesis section.
