Development of Fiber-PZT array sensor system

배열형 Fiber-PZT 센서 시스템의 개발

Ultrasonic fiber sensor is more cost-effective than optical fiber sensor using light. However, optical fiber lines are separately used for sensing. Thus, if it is applied for huge system, it is need many lines of the sensor systems. To overcome this point, novel ultrasonic sensor systems considering wave cancellation and modulation were newly developed. By using this schema, reference-free sensor system can be developed. By using ultrasonic waves of different excitation frequencies, multiple input-signal output sensor system was also developed by applying spectrum analyses. Using the array type sensor system, the leakage of liquid and its evaporation can be monitored successfully.
