Design of a digital interferometric demodulator

This thesis investigates the design of a digital fiber-optic interferometric demodulator based upon a passive symmetric combination of signals produced by an interferometer terminated with a 3x3 optical coupler. The demodulator was implemented using a digital signal processing (DSP) board based upon...
