Abstract

This pa per proposed a novel mathematical modeling for vibration sensitivity in unidirectional polarimetric current sensors. We believe that it is the first time to model the effect of vibration to the single-mode sensing fiber on the current measurement error in unidirectional polarimetric current sensors. In this paper, simulation results agree well with experimental results done by Tantaswadi [1].


Keywords:  linear birefringence, fiber-optic current sensors, magneto-optic current transformaers, simulation and modeling, vibrations.
