Abstract

See full text

A system and method for monitoring Fabry-Perot cavity (“FPC”) displacement implementing a predictor-corrector scheme. The system includes an optical interrogator apparatus and a data processing apparatus. The optical interrogator apparatus interrogates the FPC, obtains a spectral interference pattern and outputs a corresponding signal including data associated with a plurality of peaks. The data processing apparatus processes the output signal to produce a prediction for a peak location based on the data associated with the plurality of peaks, and then uses the prediction to identify as correct one of the plurality of peaks. The data processing apparatus then determines and outputs a plurality of FPC length variations. In one embodiment, the data processing system implements a period tracking algorithm to produce the prediction based on the data associated with the plurality of peaks, and uses a phase tracking algorithm to determine an FPC length variation using the identified peak.
