A Mesh Network refers to a type of optical fiber cable network where nodes are interconnected through multiple paths, creating a web-like structure. This setup allows for robust, reliable, and flexible communication, as data can travel through various routes to reach its destination, ensuring continuous monitoring even if some paths or nodes fail.
We develop a heuristic solution to effectively optimize the placement of multi-channel distributed fiber optic sensors in mesh optical fiber cable networks. The solution has beenimplemented in a field network to provide continuous monitoring.
