Abstract

Fiber Optic sensors are found to be very suitable for explosion and shock wave measurements because they are immune to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). In the past few years, TNO has developed a number of sensor systems for explosion and shock wave measurements in which the optical fiber is a vital component. This paper presents a survey of these optical measurement systems using fiber optics. The basic design of these systems, the test configurations and the experimental results are presented.
