abstract = "Fiber ultrasound (US) sensing is gaining popularity in recent years. Unique characteristics such as immunity to electromagnetic interference and embedding compatibility makes them advantageous in many applications. Multiplexing of US fiber sensors, however, remains a challenge. Here, a new multiplexing approach is introduced. Based on Swept Frequency Interferometry (SFI), it enables practical multiplexing of tens of US sensors. For demonstration, a 3-sensors setup was excited by ultrasound tone-bursts. While using low driving voltage (2.5-10V vs. 100-400V in similar studies) and not implementing acoustic-impedance optimization or optical-resonance sensitivity enhancement, the sensors detected the excitation with high SNR (25dB).",
