Abstract
An optical fiber with double fiber cores for sensing comprises cladding I and cladding II arranged outside the cladding I. The cladding I is provided with a fiber core I and a fiber core II in parallel, the refractive indexes of the fiber core I and the fiber core II are bigger than that of the cladding I, the refractive index of the cladding I is bigger than that of the cladding II, and a protective layer is arranged outside the cladding II. Optical signals are injected in the end face of the optical fiber with double fiber cores, and therefore the optical signals exist in the fiber core I, the fiber core II, the cladding I and the cladding II. Through a short transmission distance, the optical signals only exist in the fiber core I and the fiber core II, the optical signals in the fiber core I and the fiber core II can be maintained relatively stable, and when a change occurs to the optical fiber, the optical signals in the fiber core I and the fiber core II are reallocated, the changes of the optical signals inside the fiber core I and the fiber core II can be monitored by arranging detection equipment on the end portion of the optical fiber with the double fiber cores, and the monitoring aim is achieved. The optical fiber with the double fiber core for sensing is simple in structure, low in cost, wide in use and good in market prospect.
