Abstract

We present a multichannel laser-fiber vibrometer concept, realization and obtained results. The vibrometer is based on the WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) telecommunication technique and operates at 1550 nm region. Four independent fibre-coupled laser diodes form a system of sources for multipoint vibration measurement according to the rule "one wavelength-one point". Such solution minimize crosstalk between channels and allows to arrange a measuring points freely. Our system measure vibrations at four points simultaneously. It allows to phase-relation measurements between vibrating points. Additionally it is all fiber design thus it gives possibility to measure vibrations in hard to reach places.
