Notes:
The performance of an all fiber accelerometer, based on a compliant cylinder design and operating at λ0=1.3 μm is described. Sub-μg/(square root of)Hz resolution in a frequency range from 10 to 250 Hz has been demonstrated. The measured dynamic range exceeds six orders of magnitude. Faraday rotation mirrors have been incorporated into the accelerometer to prevent signal fading due to random changes in the state of polarization of the guided beams. Test results at elevated temperatures are presented. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
