Fiber optic sensing belongs to communication engineering
Fiber-optic systems are the backbone of communication systems, carrying most of the world's data traffic. Radiation absorption excites an orbital electron to a higher energy level. Due to its small size, low cost and ease of fabrication leading it to replace traditional sensors which were used frequently before th birth of fiber optic sensors. Further there are many points why fiber optic sensors are used in place of traditional size and. A fiber-optic sensor is a sensor that uses optical fiber either as the sensing element ("intrinsic sensors"), or as a means of relaying signals from a remote sensor to the electronics that process the signals ("extrinsic sensors"). The fiber becomes the sensor while the interrogator injects laser energy into the fiber and detects. Optical Fiber Communication (OFC) revolutionizes modern telecommunications, enabling rapid data transfer across long distances with minimal signal loss.
