Abstract:
A sensor line, a measuring arrangement and a method detect a change in an ambient variable. The sensor line serves for detecting a change in an ambient variable, in particular the temperature. The sensor line has a first optical waveguide, a second optical waveguide and also a material that changes its transparency depending on the value of the ambient variable. The material is positioned between the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide in such a way that light from the first optical waveguide is able to be coupled into the second optical waveguide in an event of a change in the transparency.

Claim (Index 17):
A measuring configuration for detecting an ambient variable, comprising:\n a sensor line containing a first optical waveguide, a second optical waveguide and a material having a light transmissivity varying in dependence on a value of the ambient variable, said material is positioned between said first optical waveguide and said second optical waveguide such that light is able to be coupled from said first optical waveguide into said second optical waveguide depending on the value of the ambient variable; a feed-in unit for feeding the light into said first optical waveguide; at least one receiving unit for receiving the light from said second optical waveguide; and an evaluation unit configured for evaluating the light received by said receiving unit and outputting a signal depending on a received value.
