Patent attributes
A fiber optic voltage conditioner, and method therefor, generally relate to voltage conditioning. In such a fiber optic voltage conditioner, there is a laser, and an optical circulator is coupled to receive a light signal from the laser. A controller is coupled to the laser and is configured to generate first control information for wavelength-drift control of the laser. A data acquisition module is coupled to the controller and is configured to generate second control information for the controller for adjustment of the first control information. A photodetector is coupled to the optical circulator to receive a returned optical signal and is coupled to the data acquisition module to provide an analog output signal thereto. The photodetector is configured to generate the analog output signal responsive to the returned optical signal. The data acquisition module is configured to generate the second control information using the analog output signal.
