In this paper we discuss a particular topology of a fiber optic pressure transducer. The sensor was designed to operate using typical telecommunications components at 1300nm wavelength. The sensing effect IS based on induced birefringence modulation occurring in highly birefringent (HB) optical fibers under the influence of hydrostatic pressure. The presented transducer was developed in a temperature self-compensating optical configuration not requiring any additional electronic network compensation against the temperature artifact.
