Abstract
The Sagnac interferometer can be configured in forms that have position dependent, as well as position independent, response to time varying environmental disturbances. These features allow distributed sensors to be formed by various combinations of Sagnac interferometers and modes of operations. This paper describes a series of Sagnac distributed sensors that allow the determination of the position and amplitude of a time varying environmental disturbance.
