Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0177623A1] A fibre laser sensor has a fibre laser (FL) comprising two reflectors in the form of a first and a second Bragg grating (4, 5) and a fibre segment (3) located between them. The first Bragg grating (4) is arranged temperature-sensitively. The second Bragg grating is a Chirped Bragg grating (5) whose central wavelength is stabilised in relation to temperature changes. This sensor enables temperature and pressure to be measured separately from each other, simultaneously, beat frequencies of orthogonal self-polarisation modes of the fibre laser (FL) being a measure for pressure and beat frequencies of longitudinal modes being a measure for temperature.
