Abstract

A model for power distribution from a series of radiative taps on multimode optical fibers is presented. This model can be used for designing and packaging tapped fiber based optical devices and subsystems: distributed sensors, delay lines, signal processors, add-drop multiplexers, and array illuminators. Case studies on analyzing a distributed fiber optic pressure sensor and designing an array illuminator with an equal amount of power from each tap are discussed.
