A Wide-Range Displacement Sensor Based on Plastic Fiber Macro-Bend Coupling

This paper proposes the strategy of fabricating an all fiber wide-range displacement sensor based on the macro-bend coupling effect which causes power transmission between two twisted bending plastic optical fibers (POF), where the coupling power changes with the bending radius of the fibers. For th...
