  • Abstract
    We have described two self-referenced intensity based optical fiber sensors supported on a Michelson sensing head configuration with and without optical feedback. Theoretical and experimental studies were carried out. The model developed proved to be effective in describing the sensor properties, which validates its utilization for sensor design and optimization
