Abstract

The effects of the Faraday rotation mirror on the all-fiber optic current sensor (AFOCS) are studied in this paper. The reflectivity degradation of FRM with the long-term operation, the misalignment of the optical axis between FRM and the sensing fiber, and the influence of temperature fluctuation on FRM are modeled and simulated in this paper. The effect of temperature is the biggest obstacle to the application of the Faraday rotation mirror, while other factors can be easy to overcome by the data processing method. The experiments are designed and realized for verification. The temperature fluctuation range is related to the measured electric current to satisfy the required accuracy for IEC 60044-8 class 0.2S.
