The core function of an optical fiber pressure sensor is to convert external mechanical pressure into measurable changes in the optical signals transmitted through the fiber. This process relies on the fiber's unique waveguide structure and the interaction between light and matter. Figure 1 depicts a simplified structure of a non-interferometric fiber optic pressure sensor.

Fiber optic cable crush testing is a procedure used to evaluate the resistance of fiber optic cables to crushing forces or pressure. It aims to determine the cable's ability to withstand external pressure without experiencing significant deformation, signal loss, or damage to the. Fiber optic cables are renowned for transmitting data at light speed, but their physical strength is often underestimated. Fiber design and transmission technology have collaboratively evolved to increase bandwidth.
