A High-Fidelity Interferogram Calculator for Coaxial Cable Fabry-Perot Interferometry

Abstract

Coaxial cable Fabry-Perot interferometry (CCFPI) can be used for robust distributed condition monitoring. This abstract presents the development and validation of a high-fidelity analytical tool, I-See, used to predict the interferogram of CCFPI, through finite element analysis and experimentation. This tool enables rapid analysis of CCFPI designs, accounting for cable properties, and isolates the analysis from experimental artefacts. The novel I-See analytical tool will be utilized in ongoing research conducted in this field.
