Building upon the foundations of the subject in the preceding four volumes of this series, this text concentrates, as they do, upon both applications and the technology of advanced optical fibre sensors. Previous volumes have covered the fundamentals of the field, devices and systems and chemical and environmental monitoring. This volume deals with a range of highly topical sensor devices and commercial systems, with considerable emphasis upon one of the most important areas, Bragg gratings in fibres, their fabrication and applications in advanced sensor systems and the principles and use of distributed fibre optic sensors. The volume is well illustrated and referenced, pointing to hundreds of key publications accessible in the open literature. It draws upon a group of authors with an international reputation for their work in the area, edited into a coherent and logical text by the editors, based on their considerable experience in the field. This book series should provide a valuable source for researchers, engineers and advanced students in the field of optical fibres, optoelectronics and measurement and sensing.
