Field Trial of Distributed Fiber Sensor Network Using Operational Telecom Fiber Cables as Sensing Media

/in /by

Field Trial of Distributed Fiber Sensor Network Using Operational Telecom Fiber Cables as Sensing Media We demonstrate fiber optic sensing systems in a distributed fiber sensor network built on existing telecom infrastructure to detect temperature, acoustic effects, vehicle traffic, etc. Measurements are also demonstrated with different network topologies and simultaneously sensing four fiber routes with one system.

First Proof That Geographic Location on Deployed Fiber Cable Can Be Determined by Using OTDR Distance Based on Distributed Fiber Optical Sensing Technology We demonstrated for the first time that geographic locations on deployed fiber cables can be determined accurately by using OTDR distances. The method involves vibration stimulation near deployed cables and distributed fiber optical sensing technology.
