摘要： An optical interrogation system, e.g., an OFDR-based system, measures local changes of index of refraction of a sensing light guide subjected to a time-varying disturbance. Interferometric measurement signals detected for a length of the sensing light guide are transformed into the spectral domain. A time varying signal is determined from the transformed interferometric measurement data set. A compensating signal is determined from the time varying signal which is used to compensate the interferometric measurement data set for the time-varying disturbance. The compensation technique may be applied along the length of the light guide.

摘要： The application describes methods and apparatus for distributed fiber sensing, especially distributed acoustic/strain sensing. The method involves launching interrogating radiation in to an optical fiber and sampling radiation backscattered from within said fiber at a rate so as to acquire a plurality of samples corresponding to each sensing portion of interest. The plurality of samples are divided into separate processing channels and processed to determine a phase value for that channel. A quality metric is then applied to the processed phase data and the data combined to provide an overall phase value for the sensing portion based on the quality metric. The quality metric may be a measure of the degree of similarity of the processed data from the channels. The interrogating radiation may comprise two relatively narrow pulses separated by a relatively wide gap and the sampling rate may be set such that a plurality of substantially independent diversity samples are acquired.

摘要： Variable Sensitivity optical sensors can have a respective actual sensitivity of one or more portions of the sensor corresponding, at least in part, to a selected environment of each respective sensor portion. Some disclosed sensors have a plurality of optical conduits extending longitudinally of the sensors. At least one of the optical conduits can have at least one longitudinally extending segment having one or more optical and/or mechanical properties that differs from the optical properties of an adjacent longitudinally extending segment, providing the conduit with longitudinally varying signal propagation characteristics. An optical sensor having such optical conduits can exhibit a longitudinally varying actual sensitivity. Nonetheless, such a sensor can exhibit a substantially constant apparent sensitivity, e.g., when each respective portion of the sensor exhibits an actual sensitivity corresponding to a selected environment. Innovative sensors can provide a low-incidence of false or nuisance alarms, accurate position and magnitude information, and other advantages.

摘要： The application describes methods and apparatus for distributed fibre sensing, especially distributed acoustic/strain sensing. The method involves launching at least first and second pulse pairs into an optical fibre, the first and second pulse pairs having the same frequency configuration as one another and being generated such that the phase relationship of the pulses of the first pulse pair has a predetermined relative phase difference to the phase relationship of the pulses of the second pulse pair. In one embodiment there is a frequency difference between the pulses in a pulse pair which is related to the launch rate of the pulse pairs. In another embodiment the phase difference between the pulses in a pair is varied between successive launches. In this way an analytic version of the backscatter interference signal can be generated within the baseband of the sensor.

摘要： An apparatus and method for using a counter-propagating signal method for locating events is disclosed. The apparatus and method uses a Mach Zehnder interferometer through which counter-propagating signals can be launched. If the sensing zone of the Mach Zehnder interferometer is disturbed, modified counter-propagating signals are produced and the time difference between receipt of those signals is used to determine the location of the event. A Microcontroller receives feedback signals which adjusts polarisation controllers (43, 44) so that the polarisation states of the counter-propagating signals can be controlled to match the amplitude and/or phase of the output signals. Detectors are provided for detecting the modified signals.

摘要： The present invention discloses a distributed device for simultaneously measuring strain and temperature based on optical frequency domain reflection, comprising a tunable laser, a 1:99 beam splitter, a main interferometer system, a light source phase monitoring system based on an auxiliary interferometer, an acquisition device and a computer processing unit, wherein the main interferometer system comprises two Mach-Zehnder interferometers, and two optical fibers having different cladding diameters are arranged in parallel as sensing fibers. Due to the difference in temperature and strain coefficients of optical fibers of the same diameter, the temperature and strain values during changing the temperature and strain simultaneously can be obtained by matrix operation, thereby achieving an effect of eliminating cross sensitivity of temperature and strain sensing in optical frequency domain reflection.
