Abstract

In this paper a proof of concept of a switchable erbium doped fiber ring laser (EDFRL) system, demonstrated for temperature sensors multiplexing, was carried out showing a high linearity and a sensitivity of 1.55 GHz/°C. The system is based on the detection in the electrical domain of the resulting beat signal of two different laser lines generated by an EDFRL that operates in single longitudinal mode regime (SLM). The SLM operation is achieved by the use of phase shift fiber Bragg gratings (PSFBGs) with ultra-narrow bandwidths (BW) of 6 pm. Two Independent cavities for the reference signal and sensor signal generation are used to avoid the wavelength competition and to improve the stability. This configuration allows the control of the temperature operation point of the system by adjusting the temperature in the reference side.
