A fiber optic sensor system for measuring distrib uted forces is presented in this paper. A high-birefringent fiber is chosen as a sensing element. Based on the coupling effects of polarization modes in high-birefringence fibers, the distribution of the force points along the sensing fiber can be measured by detect ing mode couplings in the fiber which are caused by external force disturbance. The location and magnitude of the measured forces
