Fiber optic Fabry–Perot sensor that can amplify ultrasonic wave for an enhanced partial discharge detection

Abstract Ultrasonic wave is a powerful tool for many applications, such as structural health monitoring, medical diagnosis and partial discharges (PDs) detection. The fiber optic extrinsic Fabry–Perot interferometric (EFPI) sensor has become an ideal candidate for detecting weak ultrasonic signals d...
