Method of and apparatus for measuring oscillatory motion

摘要

A method of measuring oscillatory motion of a sample is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of illuminating a sample with an illuminating optical fiber; detecting backscattered light from the sample with a plurality of detecting optical fibers; coupling each optical fiber of the plurality of detecting optical fibers with a modulating optical fiber; and generating measurements of the oscillatory motion of the sample. An apparatus for measuring oscillatory motion of a sample is also disclosed. The apparatus comprises a light source; an illuminating optical fiber coupled to the light source; and a plurality of optical fibers positioned around the illuminating optical fiber and coupled to receive backscattered light from the sample.
