Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A programmable calibrated optical fiber thermometer system includes a sensor for transmitting light energy which varies with temperature in a region to be tested. The light energy is detected by an optical detector and linearly converted to an output signal. A signal processor calculates the temperature from this signal using fundamental radiation laws. The system may be calibrated for variations in system response caused by changes in the optical sensor; system electronics and ambient temperature by measuring the changes and incorporating the measurements into a temperature algorithm.
