Abstract (EN): The proposed technique consists in an optical fiber resonator interrogated for sensor characterization, implementing an alternative technique for dynamic range improvement. Such technique relies on the analysis of an added-signal caused by signal saturation, which occurs due to the broadening of the laser pulse. A wide study for different pulse widths is presented in this work, namely for 100 ns, 5 mu s and 20 mu s, being the last one related to the emergence of an added-signal for the proposed configuration. The behavior of the waveform in the presence of an intensity sensor is also characterized.
