We report an experimental method to measure the relative humidity using a standard optical fiber coated with hydrophilic polymer material (Gelatin). A linear response of the output power is found with the change in RH from 40% to 92%. An optimization recipe of such a sensing configuration is underway and would be presented in the symposium along with the worked out theoretical formulation.
