Abstract
Two substantially identical optical fiber interferometers, preferably packaged together and exposed to the same parameter to be measured, wherein an increase of the field quantity to be measured causes an increase of the delay time difference of one interferometer and a decrease of the delay time difference of the other interferometer. Demodulator means is connected to the outputs of the interferometers to demodulate the phase-modulated signals from each of the interferometers, and electronic differencing means is connected to receive the demodulated signals from the demodulator means to difference one of the signals from the other to enhance the measured signals relative to the laser-induced noise signals.
