effect associated to the use of an elastomeric membrane. The sensor proposed has a
particular design to be simple, reliable, and low cost. It is suitable to be used in tubes of
embankment dams, tanks, and reservoirs. The sensor uses a standard single mode fiber
and can measure the water levels up to 10 m or more, choosing the appropriate membrane.
This paper describes the development of the sensor, a theoretical modeling, and the results …
