In the last few years, the use of machine learning has emerged in the field of distributed fiber optic sensors as a promising approach to enhance their performance and provide new capabilities. In this study, we use machine learning for simultaneous measurements of temperature and humidity in polyimide (PI)-coated optical fibers based on Brillouin Brillouin optical frequency domain analysis (BOFDA). Different non-linear machine learning algorithms are employed, namely polynomial regression, decision trees and artificial neural networks (ANNs), and their discrimination performance is benchmarked against that of the conventional linear regression. The performance is evaluated using leave-one-out cross-validation to ensure that the models are reliable and able to generalize well on new data. We show that nonlinear machine learning algorithms outperform the conventional linear regression and thus could pave the way towards simultaneous cost-effective temperature and humidity distributed sensing, which has the potential to find attractive new applications in the field of civil and geotechnical engineering, from structural health monitoring of dikes and bridges to subsea cables and long pipelines corrosion detection.
Distributed humidity fiber-optic sensor based on BOFDA using a simple machine learning approach
(2022)
We report, to our knowledge for the first time, on distributed relative humidity sensing in silica polyimide-coated optical fibers using Brillouin optical frequency domain analysis (BOFDA). Linear regression, which is a simple and well-interpretable algorithm in machine learning and statistics, is utilized. The algorithm is trained using as features the Brillouin frequency shifts and linewidths of the fiber’s multipeak Brillouin spectrum. To assess and improve the effectiveness of the regression algorithm, we make use of machine learning concepts to estimate the model’s uncertainties and select the features that contribute most to the model’s performance. In addition to relative humidity, the model is also able to simultaneously provide distributed temperature information addressing the well-known cross-sensitivity effects.
Die verteilte faseroptische akustische Sensorik (DAS) wird vorgestellt, hinsichtlich ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit beschrieben und verschiedenste Anwendungsfelder, z.B. für das Zustandsmonitoring oder für seismische Messungen, beispielhaft gezeigt. Zudem werden mögliche Anwendungsfelder von DAS für den Kontext Kerntechnische Entsorgung (KTE) und Rückbau aufgezeigt.
We present a preliminary investigation on distributed humidity monitoring during the drying process of concrete based on an embedded polymer optical fiber (POF). The water dissipated into the POF changes several properties of the fiber such as refractive index, scattering coefficient and attenuation factor, which eventually alters the Rayleigh backscattered light. The optical time Domain reflectometer (OTDR) technique is performed to acquire the backscattered signal at the wavelengths 650 nm and 500 nm, respectively. Experimental results show that the received signal increases at 650 nm while the fiber attenuation factor clearly increases at 500 nm, as the concrete dries out. In the hygroscopic range, the information retrieved from the signal change at 650 nm agrees well with the measurement result of the electrical humidity sensors also embedded in the concrete sample.
The feasibility of traffic monitoring along a major urban road using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is demonstrated. We present measurement results of conventional intensity-based DAS along a dark fiber in a tubed fiber optic cable buried roadside. With only minimal postprocessing different classes of traffic participants can be distinguished (cars, bikes, pedestrians). Different methods for pre-processing raw data are compared, especially with regard to providing suitable inputs for pattern recognition algorithms. Furthermore, the various challenges for automatized vehicle detection and classification related to varying sensitivity and inhomogeneous signal propagation are discussed. Sensitivity fluctuations and variations are in part inherent to the measurement technology and originate in part in ground conditions. The measurement quality and usefulness for traffic monitoring of intensity-based DAS is compared to that of state-of-the-art phase-resolved DAS, allowing quantitative evaluation of vibration signals.
