The localized fluctuating model is used to study the intensity noise caused by the stimulated Brillouin scattering in a single-mode fiber. The phase noise structure is analyzed for an interferometric fiber sensing system, and an unbalanced Michelson interferometer with an optical path difference of 1 m, as well as the phase-generated carrier technique, is used to measure the phase noise. It is found that the phase noise is small when the input power is below the stimulated Brillouin scattering threshold, increases dramatically at first and then gradually becomes flat when the input power is above the threshold, which is similar to the variation in relative intensity noise. It can be inferred that the increase in phase noise is mainly due to the broadening of the laser linewidth caused by stimulated Brillouin scattering, which is verified through linewidth measurements in the absence and presence of the stimulated Brillouin scattering.展开更多

Optical fiber sensing technology is one of the options to solve it. Stress vector information is the important index to make more reasonable judgments about railway safety. However, information sensed by lots of commercial optical sensors is scalar. According to the stress filed distribution of rail, this paper proposes a new type of stress vector sensor based on optical fiber sensing cable(OFSC) with a symmetrical seven optical fibers structure and analyzes the relations between angle resolution and distance between adjacent of optical fibers through finite-element software(ANSYS) simulation. Through reasonable distance configuration, the angle resolution of the OFSC can be improved, and thus stress vector information, including the stress magnitude and the angle of stress, can be more accurately obtained. The simulation results are helpful to configure OFSC for angle resolution improvement in actual practice, and increase the safety factor in high speed railway structure health monitoring.展开更多

文摘The distributed fiber optic sensing system,known for its high sensitivity and wide-ranging measurement capabilities,has been widely used in monitoring underground gas pipelines.It primarily serves to perceive vibration signals induced by external events and to effectively provide early warnings of potential intrusion activities.Due to the complexity and diversity of external intrusion events,traditional deep learning methods can achieve event recognition with an average accuracy exceeding 90%.However,these methods rely on large-scale datasets,leading to significant time and labor costs during the data collection process.Additionally,traditional methods perform poorly when faced with the scarcity of low-frequency event samples,making it challenging to address these rare occurrences.To address this issue,this paper proposes a small-sample learning model based on triplet learning for intrusion event recognition.The model employs a 6-way 20-shot support set configuration and utilizes the KNN clustering algorithm to assess the model's performance.Experimental results indicate that the model achieves an average accuracy of 91.6%,further validating the superior performance of the triplet learning model in classifying external intrusion events.Compared to traditional methods,this approach not only effectively reduces the dependence on large-scale datasets but also better addresses the classification of low-frequency event samples,demonstrating significant application potential.

文摘Despite the extensive use of distributed fiber optic sensing(DFOS)in monitoring underground structures,its potential in detecting structural anomalies,such as cracks and cavities,is still not fully understood.To contribute to the identification of defects in underground structures,this study conducted a four-point bending test of a reinforced concrete(RC)beam and uniaxial loading tests of an RC specimen with local cavities.The experimental results revealed the disparity in DFOS strain spike profiles between these two structural anomalies.The effectiveness of DFOS in the quantification of crack opening displacement(COD)was also demonstrated,even in cases where perfect bonding was not achievable between the cable and structures.In addition,DFOS strain spikes observed in two diaphragm wall panels of a twin circular shaft were also reported.The most probable cause of those spikes was identified as the mechanical behavior associated with local concrete contamination.With the utilization of the strain profiles obtained from laboratory tests and field monitoring,three types of multi-classifiers,based on support vector machine(SVM),random forest(RF),and backpropagation neural network(BP),were employed to classify strain profiles,including crack-induced spikes,non-crack-induced spikes,and non-spike strain profiles.Among these classifiers,the SVM-based classifier exhibited superior performance in terms of accuracy and model robustness.This finding suggests that the SVM-based classifier holds promise as a potential solution for the automatic detection and classification of defects in underground structures during long-term monitoring.

文摘The commonly used method for estimating crack opening displacement(COD)is based on analytical models derived from strain transferring.However,when large background noise exists in distributed fiber optic sensing(DFOS)data,estimating COD through an analytical model is very difficult even if the DFOS data have been denoised.To address this challenge,this study proposes a machine learning(ML)-based methodology to complete rock's COD estimation from establishment of a dataset with one-to-one correspondence between strain sequence and COD to the optimization of ML models.The Bayesian optimization is used via the Hyperopt Python library to determine the appropriate hyper-parameters of four ML models.To ensure that the best hyper-parameters will not be missing,the configuration space in Hyperopt is specified by probability distribution.The four models are trained using DFOS data with minimal noise while being examined on datasets with different noise levels to test their anti-noise robustness.The proposed models are compared each other in terms of goodness of fit and mean squared error.The results show that the Bayesian optimization-based random forest is promising to estimate the COD of rock using noisy DFOS data.

文摘Coal mining induces changes in the nature of rock and soil bodies,as well as hydrogeological conditions,which can easily trigger the occurrence of geological disasters such as water inrush,movement of the coal seam roof and floor,and rock burst.Transparency in coal mine geological conditions provides technical support for intelligent coal mining and geological disaster prevention.In this sense,it is of great significance to address the requirements for informatizing coal mine geological conditions,dynamically adjust sensing parameters,and accurately identify disaster characteristics so as to prevent and control coal mine geological disasters.This paper examines the various action fields associated with geological disasters in mining faces and scrutinizes the types and sensing parameters of geological disasters resulting from coal seam mining.On this basis,it summarizes a distributed fiber-optic sensing technology framework for transparent geology in coal mines.Combined with the multi-field monitoring characteristics of the strain field,the temperature field,and the vibration field of distributed optical fiber sensing technology,parameters such as the strain increment ratio,the aquifer temperature gradient,and the acoustic wave amplitude are extracted as eigenvalues for identifying rock breaking,aquifer water level,and water cut range,and a multi-field sensing method is established for identifying the characteristics of mining-induced rock mass disasters.The development direction of transparent geology based on optical fiber sensing technology is proposed in terms of the aspects of sensing optical fiber structure for large deformation monitoring,identification accuracy of optical fiber acoustic signals,multi-parameter monitoring,and early warning methods.

文摘Phase-sensitive Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer(φ-OTDR)technology facilitates the real-time detection of vibration events along fiber optic cables by analyzing changes in Rayleigh scattering signals.This technology is widely used in applications such as intrusion monitoring and structural health assessments.Traditional signal processing methods,such as Support Vector Machines(SVM)and K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN),have limitations in feature extraction and classification in complex environments.Conversely,a single deep learning model often struggles with capturing long time-series dependencies and mitigating noise interference.In this study,we propose a deep learning model that integrates Convolutional Neural Network(CNN),Long Short-Term Memory Network(LSTM),and Transformer modules,leveraging φ-OTDR technology for distributed fiber vibration sensing event recognition.The hybrid model combines the CNN's capability to extract local features,the LSTM's ability to model temporal dynamics,and the Transformer's proficiency in capturing global dependencies.This integration significantly enhances the accuracy and robustness of event recognition.In experiments involving six types of vibration events,the model consistently achieved a validation accuracy of 0.92,and maintained a validation loss of approximately 0.2,surpassing other models,such as TAM+BiLSTM and CNN+CBAM.The results indicate that the CNN+LSTM+Transformer model is highly effective in handling vibration signal classification tasks in complex scenarios,offering a promising new direction for the application of fiber optic vibration sensing technology.

文摘Soft polymer optical fiber(SPOF)has shown great potential in optical-based wearable and implantable biosensors due to its excellent mechanical properties and optical guiding characteristics.However,the multimodality characteristics of SPOF limit their integration with traditional fiber optic sensors.This article introduces for the first time a flexible fiber optic vibration sensor based on laser interference technology,which can be applied to vibration measurement under high stretch conditions.This sensor utilizes elastic optical fibers made of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)as sensing elements,combined with phase generating carrier technology,to achieve vibration measurement at 50−260 Hz within the stretch range of 0−42%.
文摘Fiber optic temperature sensors stand out in a variety of applications due to their small size,chemical resistance,and resistance to electromagnetic interference.The traditional optical fiber temperature sensor directly places the sensing structure in the temperature to be measured,and uses the thermo-optical effect and thermal expansion effect of the SiO_(2)material that constitutes the sensing structure to achieve measurement,while the thermo-optical coefficient and thermal expansion coefficient of SiO_(2) are very small,which limits the high sensitivity response characteristics of the optical fiber temperature sensing structure.In order to solve the problem of low sensitivity of traditional optical fiber temperature sensors,a Mach-Zehnder interferometric temperature sensor with a liquid-encapsulated tapered microfiber is developed.The sensor converts the temperature change into a change in the refractive index of the liquid material and thus realizes the measurement of temperature.In the range of 25~50℃,as the temperature increases,the wavelength of the transmission spectrum shifts towards shorter wavelengths.Experimental results show that the sensitivity of the liquid encapsulated microfiber interferometric temperature sensor can reach-57.91 nk·nm^(-1).This sensor has great potential for applications in marine environmental monitoring,biomedical diagnosis,and aerospace.

文摘Confinement of rock bolts by the surrounding rock formation has long been recognized as a positive contributor to the pull-out behavior,yet only a few experimental works and analytical models have been reported,most of which are based on the global rock bolt response evaluated in pull-out tests.This paper presents a laboratory experimental setup aiming to capture the rock formation effect,while using distributed fiber optic sensing to quantify the effect of the confinement and the reinforcement pull-out behavior on a more local level.It is shown that the behavior along the sample itself varies,with certain points exhibiting stress drops with crack formation.Some edge effects related to the kinematic freedom of the grout to dilate are also observed.Regardless,it was found that the mid-level response is quite similar to the average response along the sample.The ability to characterize the variation of the response along the sample is one of the many advantages high-resolution fiber optic sensing allows in such investigations.The paper also offers a plasticity-based hardening load transfer function,representing a"slice"of the anchor.The paper describes in detail the development of the model and the calibration/determination of its parameters.The suggested model captures well the coupled behavior in which the pull-out process leads to an increase in the confining stress due to dilative behavior.
