    In this study, the effects of mesa dimensions on sensor response in diaphragm-based FabryPerot fiber optic sensors (FOSs) were investigated in detail. Mesa diaphragms, also called centerembossed diaphragms, have been discussed sufficiently in the literature, but the effect of mesa thickness on sensor performance has not been discussed in detail. Moreover, there is no precise analytical solution for such diaphragms. For this reason, diaphragms with different thicknesses and radii were selected, and the deflection and frequency responses of the diaphragm according to the applied acoustic pressure were analyzed using the ANSYS software, depending on whether the mesa is thinner or thicker than the diaphragm. If the thickness of the mesa is smaller than the thickness of the diaphragm, the center deflection changes drastically. However, if the thickness of the mesa is two times greater than the thickness of the diaphragm, there is no significant change in the deflection results. Similarly, if the mesa thickness is thinner than the diaphragm, the sensor’s frequency response changes drastically with increasing mesa radius. In cases where the mesa thickness is larger than the diaphragm thickness, the frequency response changes less. According to the results, mesa dimensions should be considered when designing a mesa diaphragm-based Fabry-Perot FOS.
