Distributed strain and temperature change detection using optical frequency domain reflectometry
(2017)
We propose the optical frequency Domain reflectometry (OFDR) technique based on intensity modulation frequency sweep measurement for coherent distributed sensing applications. By evaluating interferometric Rayleigh scattering changes along the fibre, strain and temperature changes can be detected with a sensitivity in the ne-range and 10 mK temperature resolution. Low Vibration frequencies and vibrations up to the kHz-range can be detected by differential power change evaluation in the spatial domain. This OFDR approach is a low-cost alternative to distributed vibration sensing based on C-OTDR up to distances of several kilometres.
Application importance of ionizing radiation has been growing steadily over the last decades. Extensive utilization of ionizing radiation generates demand for development of suitable monitoring techniques. Radiation monitoring systems based on optical fibers offer several key advantages such as small footprint, possibility of remote and real-time measurement as well as electromagnetic immunity. In this contribution, we investigate radiation-induced attenuation (RIA)-based sensing with perfluorinated polymer optical fibers (PF-POFs). The RIA response of two commercial PF-POFs is assessed in a low dose region and performance and limitations of the system are discussed. The concept represents a potential high-sensitivity, low-cost and easy-to-use on-line radiation monitoring system with distributed detection capability.
