摘要： A sensing fibre for use in a distributed temperature sensing system comprises an optical fibre to be deployed in a measurement region in which a temperature measurement is to be made, which incorporates a reflective element, such as a join between portions of fibre, and a coiled fibre portion positioned adjacent a distal side of the reflective element, the coiled fibre portion contributing substantially nothing to the spatial extent of the optical fibre when deployed. In use, the effect of any forward propagating light incident on the reflective element that is returned for detection by the system, and which saturates the detector, can be eliminated by removing the part of the detected signal that corresponds to the coiled portion, after which the detector will have recovered. The remaining parts of the signal can be used to derive the distributed temperature profile since these parts represent the whole extent of the sensing fibre owing to the lack of spatial extent of the coil. Coils can be provided on both sides of the reflective element for double-ended temperature sensing techniques.

摘要： An apparatus for sensing data from a remote optical sensor 16 has its frequency stabilised by balancing the outputs of narrow band filter 28 30, spaced about a desired frequency 36 positioned at about the 3db down points 40 of a broad band light source 10 using voltage control, current control or temperature control to vary the frequency of the wide band light source 10. Difference between the outputs through the two narrow band filters 28 30 can be used to drive an amplifier 48 to correct the frequency of the broad band light source. The outputs through the two narrow band filters 28 30 can be converted 52 to binary numbers and fed to a microprocessor 56 which is used, via analog conversion 60, to drive the amplifier 48. The broad band light source 10 can be pulse modulated 68 to provide temporally separate light pulses 92 94 through each of the narrow band filters 28 30, measured at separate times. The corrective output to the amplifier 48 can be governed by a ratio between the outputs through the narrow band filters 28 30 rather than by a difference there between.

摘要： A method and apparatus for receiving measurements from an interferometer transducer (22) uses a broad band light beam (19A), reflected from the transducer (22), and compares it with the amplitudes of narrow band beams, derived from the reflected broad band light beam (19A), by filters (23A-23D) on different frequencies. The narrow band light beams and the broad band light beam (19A) are measured on photo detectors (22A, 21B-21E). Microprocessor (57) compares outputs of the photo detectors to interpret phase differences between signals (25, 27, 29) from the narrow band beams. A periodically operable shutter and a single photo detector (21) can also be used. Other embodiments modulate (12) the light source (10) to produce very short broad band pulses of light (36, 40) which are reflected from the transducer (22).

摘要： An optical fiber sensor system and method for monitoring a condition of a linear structure such as a pipeline is provided which is capable of providing continuous monitoring in the event of a break in the sensing optical fiber or fibers. The system includes at least one sensing fiber provided along the length of the linear structure, and first and second interrogation and laser pumping sub-systems disposed at opposite ends of the sensing fiber, each of which includes a reflectometer. The reflectometer of the first interrogation and laser pumping sub-system is connected to one end of the sensing fiber. The reflectometer of the second interrogation and laser pumping sub-system is coupled to either (i) an end of a second sensing fiber provided along the length of the linear structure which is opposite from the one end of the first sensing fiber, or (ii) the opposite end of the first sensing fiber. Before any break of the sensing fiber or fibers occurs, each reflectometer redundantly monitors the condition of the linear structure over its entire length. After any such break occurs, each reflectometer will continue to receive signals up to the point of the break from opposite ends of the structure.

摘要： A method of obtaining a distributed measurement comprises deploying an optical fibre in a measurement region of interest, and launching into it a first optical signal at a first wavelength λ0 and a high power level, a second optical signal at a second wavelength λ−1, and a third optical signal at the first wavelength λ0 and a low power level. These optical signals generate backscattered light at the second wavelength λ−1 arising from Raman scattering of the first optical signal which is indicative of a parameter to be measured, at the first wavelength λ0 arising from Rayleigh scattering of the first optical signal, at the second wavelength λ−1 arising from Rayleigh scattering of the second optical signal, and at the first wavelength λ0 arising from Rayleigh scattering of the third optical signal. The backscattered light is detected to generate four output signals, and a final output signal is derived by normalising the Raman scattering signal to a function derived from the three Rayleigh scattering signals, which removes the effects of wavelength-dependent and nonlinear loss.

摘要： A method of measuring a selected physical parameter at a location within a region of interest comprises the steps of: launching optical pulses at a plurality of reselected interrogation wavelengths into an optical fibber (1) deployed along the region of interest, reflectors (20,21,2n) being arrayed along the optical fibber (1) to form an array (9) of sensor elements, the optical path length between the said reflectors (2) being dependent upon the selected parameter; detecting the returned optical interference signal for each of the reselected wavelengths; and determining from the optical interference signal the absolute optical path length (L) between two reflectors (2) at the said location, and from the optical path length (L) so determined the value of the selected parameter at the said location; wherein the step of determining the absolute optical path length (L) comprises carrying out a process in which the phase difference between the interference signals for a pair of the reselected wavelengths is estimated using an estimated value for the optical path length (L), the estimated phase difference is used to estimate the phase at each of those wavelengths, and the phase thus obtained is used to revise the estimated value for the optical path length (L), the process being repeated for some or all remaining wavelength pairs in sequence, on the basis of the optical path length (L) estimated for the immediately preceding pair in the sequence, thereby to progressively revise the optical path length (L) until it is know to a desired level of accuracy.
