Optical interferometry, being a precise, optical distance measurement technique, is often a method of choice in such applications. However, classical fringe-counting interferometers present several drawbacks in terms of system complexity. Due to the increasing availability of broadband, high-speed, sweeping laser sources, Frequency Scanning Interferometry (FSI) based systems, using Fourier analysis of the interference signal, are becoming a subject of growing interest. In the framework of the High-Luminosity LHC project at CERN, a range of FSI-based sensor solutions have been developed and tested. It includes the optical equipment for monitoring the position of cryogenic components inside their cryostats and FSI instrumentation like inclinometers and water-based levelling sensors. This paper presents the results of preliminary tests of these components.}}, }
