摘要: In some embodiments, a distributed nondestructive inspection method for slickline cable structural defect detection transmits a light pulse along an optical waveguide in the slickline cable. A reflected light signal is 5 received from the optical waveguide in response to the light pulse. Defects can then be determined in the slickline cable based on variations in scattering intensity, phase shift, specific spectral signature, power spectral density, strain amplitude, and/or transmission loss of the reflected light signal as compared to the light pulse.

摘要: A high-durability and long-scale-distance fiber grating sensor and a manufacturing method therefor, which relate to the technical field of fiber grating sensors. A fiber grating is disposed on the middle segment of a commercial optical fiber. A bushing, a woven fiber jacket layer, and a packaging structure are disposed on the periphery of the commercial optical fiber. The commercial optical fiber and the bushing therebetween are fixed by using fixing points in the bushing. Anchoring segments are disposed between the fixing points in the bushing and the woven fiber jacket layer. Two ends of the commercial optical fiber are sequentially connected to optical fibers on the anchoring segments and connecting optical fibers. Tail ends of the connecting optical fibers are connected to a transmission cable by using connecting flanges. By using the apparatus and the manufacturing method, the applicability and the durability of application of the fiber grating sensor in the civil traffic engineering field are improved, thereby providing a stable and reliable apparatus for long-time detection and sound monitoring of large engineering structures in the civil traffic engineering field.

摘要: It is proposed a method for monitoring an electrical power supply line comprised in a seismic cable and extending along the seismic cable. The seismic cable includes: a plurality of seismic sensors arranged along the seismic cable, a plurality of controllers arranged along the seismic cable, and an optical transmission line extending along the seismic cable for carrying data signals from or towards the controllers. The electrical power supply line supplies at least one pair of master and slave controllers. The master controller of a given pair of master and slave controllers performs a step of monitoring a portion of the electrical power supply line between the master and slave controllers, by using an optical loop established on a portion of the optical transmission line between the master and slave controllers, and starting from the master controller and passing through the slave controller.

摘要: A sensor for detecting material degradation may include an optical fiber and a housing through which the optical fiber extends. An end cap may be affixed to an end of the housing. Light provided through the optical fiber may be reflected off of the end cap back through the optical fiber. The end cap may be made of a material of interest, and may be situated in an environment wherein the material of interest is present. A light source may provide input light through the optical fiber. A portion of the input light may be reflected off of the end cap. A light receptor may receive the reflected light via the optical fiber. A processing unit may be adapted to compare a measured intensity of the reflected light to a threshold, and to initiate an alarm condition if the measured intensity is below the threshold.

摘要: A fiber optic sensor system includes an optical source to output a first optical signal to launch into an optical fiber, and a coherent detector to mix a coherent Rayleigh backscatter signal generated by the optical fiber in response to the first optical signal with a second optical signal output by the optical source and to generate a mixed output signal. A phase detection and acquisition system determines a phase difference between first and second locations along the optical fiber based on phase information extracted from the mixed output signal and combines the phase information extracted from multiple acquisitions to detect strain on the optical fiber sensor.
