Response time and sensitivity in TDM fiber optic sensor network

In this paper we study de response time and sensitivity of a previous reported fiber optic sensor network, multiplexed in the time and spatial domain. As functions of ring resonator coupling coefficient (K) and fiber optic sensor attenuation (A). The network is studied without a frequency based self-reference as previously reported. The response time is defined as the time needed to reach the 95% of the steady state total output power different to the previous work. We find better sensitivities for K and A of 0.99 and 1 respectively. And bigger response times for K and A of 0.02 and 1 respectively.
