Title: Method and apparatus for optical sensing
Inventor: MAHMOUD FARHADIROUSHAN
IPC: G01D5/353
Filed: 2016-03-07
Abstract: A distributed sensing system comprises an optic fibre 712 deployable in an environment to be sensed, the fibre 712 having reflector portions regularly distributed in at least a first region thereof and having a first spacing therebetween. An optical signal source 701 inputs optical pulses into the fibre 712. Sensing apparatus 713 detects light from the optical pulses reflected back along the fibre 712 from the reflector portions and determines a parameter (e.g. acoustic, vibration, temperature) that perturbs the path length of the fibre 712 in dependence on the reflected light. A gauge length of the system is adjusted to encompass one or more of the first spacings (reflector portions) to select a desired spatial sensing resolution. The reflectivity of the reflector portions may increase in dependence of; the distance along the fibre, the optical loss along the fibre, or the optical losses of connectors and feedthroughs, or a combination thereof.
