ADVANTAGES OF FIBRE OPTICS SENSING TECHNOLOGY
Small size
Applicable to any systems that require optical fibres for data transfer
Light weight
Easy to be transported in abundant amount of bulk optical fibres
Passive & safe
Meticulous control system in maintaining the efficiency
Immunity to EM interference
LASER produces no EM waves compared to electrons in copper wire that produce EM waves due to electron flow
High temperature performance
Very resistant to high temperature and low temperature since the cladding layer is madely durable
High sensitivity
Total internal reflection that occurs has contributed high sensitivity of data signalling
Potential of high-capacity multiplexing & distributed sensing
Easy to be implemented in any complex system that comprises many other complicated systems
Wide broadband network
It can supply data faster despite of very long distance since it has cladding that will reduce signal loss
Cost savings
It is made of glass which is abundantly found compared to copper wire which requires high cost
Compact size
Very applicable to any conditions that require data transfer and signal transportation
High durability
Fibre optics are also constructed underwater with very strong mechanical support enveloping them
Guarantee of confidentiality
No leaking data problems
APPLICATIONS OF FIBRE OPTICS
Medicine
-Endoscopes use optical fibres to produce an image of inside the body
Telecommunication
-Fibre optics used by Maxis company to transmit telephone signals, Internet communication and cable television signals
Security
-Fibre optic surveillance systems allow wireless surveillance camera systems to function and transmit images
Transportation
-Optical fiber sensor to identify trains and measure dynamic loads on a rail
Military
-Fiber optic payout dispensers for air, land, and marine vehicles
-Fiber optic sensors for vehicle-navigation and environmental sensing and monitoring
Industry
-Fibre optics used in industrial welding application to cut steel for building cars
