In-Depth Understanding of Fiber Optic Sensing Network

Fiber optic sensing network is a tendency for many applications. It supports a large number of sensors in a single optical fiber with high-speed, high security, and low attenuation. This article provides some information about fiber optic sensing networks.

What is Fiber Optic Sensing Network?

A fiber optic sensing network detects changes in temperature, strain, vibrations, and sound by using the physical properties of light as it travels along an optical fiber. The optical fiber itself is the sensor, resulting in thousands of continuous sensor points along the fiber length.

How Does Fiber Optic Sensing Network work?

A fiber optic sensing network works by measuring changes in the backscattered light inside of the fiber when it meets temperature, strain, and vibration.

Rayleigh scattering is produced by fluctuations in the density inside of the fiber. Raman scattering is produced by the interaction with molecular vibration inside the fiber. The intensity of anti-Stokes rays is mainly dependent on temperature. Brillouin scattering is caused by the interaction with sound waves inside the medium. The frequency is dependent on strain and temperature.

Operating Principle of Fiber Optic Sensing Network

Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (OTDR)

In the OTDR principle, a laser pulse is generated from solid-state or semiconductor lasers and is sent into the fiber. The backscattered light is analyzed for temperature monitoring. From the time it takes the backscattered light to return to the detection unit, it is possible to locate the location of the temperature event.

Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR)

The OFDR principle provides information about the local characteristics of temperature. This information is only available when the signal is backscattered in the function of frequency. It allows for efficient use of available bandwidth and enables distributed sensing with a maximum updated rate in the fiber.

Fiber Optic Sensing Network Technologies

Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS): DTS uses the Raman effect to measure temperature distribution over the length of a fiber optic cable using the fiber itself as the sensing element.

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS): DAS uses Rayleigh scattering in the optical fiber to detect acoustic vibration.

Distributed Strain Sensing (DSS): DSS provides spatially resolved elongation (strain) shapes along an optical fiber by combining multiple sensing cables at different positions in the asset cross-section.

Distributed Strain and Temperature Sensing (DSTS): DSTS uses Brillouin scattering in optical fibers to measure changes in temperature and strain along the length of an optical fiber.

Electricity DTS: Reliable temperature measurement of high-voltage transmission lines is essential to help meet the rising electricity demand. Fiber optic sensing, integrated into distributed temperature sensors on power lines, help ensure optimal safety and performance in both medium- and long-distance systems.

Oil and Gas DTS : Many lands and subsea oil operations rely heavily on DTS for improved safety and functionality in harsh environments. Fiber optic sensing ensures reliable performance and durability in high-temperature, high-pressure, and hydrogen-rich environments.

Oil and Gas DAS: The optical fiber in DAS creates a long sensor element that can detect high-resolution events throughout the entire length of the fiber.

Fiber Optic Navigation Sensing: Fiber optics are used in navigation systems to provide accurate information about location and direction. Aircraft, missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and ground vehicles require advanced optical fiber navigation technology to ensure reliability and safety.

Fiber Optic Shape Sensing Technology: Reconstructs and displays the entire shape of optical fiber in 2D and 3D. The technology enables cutting-edge applications such as robotic, minimally invasive surgery, energy, virtual Reality (VR), etc.

Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) Technology: Use of Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) with different reflection wavelengths (Bragg wavelengths) in one optical fiber.

Applications

A fiber optic sensing network is used to monitor pipelines, bridges, tunnels, roadways, and railways. Also, it is used in oil & gas, power and utility, safety and security, fire detection, industrial, civil engineering, transportation, military, smart city, minimally invasive surgery, internet of thing (IoT), etc.

Conclusion

A fiber optic sensing network has high bandwidth, security, and stability,  is immune to electromagnetic interference, and is lightweight, small in size, and easy to deploy.

The Role of Electric Optical Fiber Delay Lines in Modern Technology

Electric Optical Fiber Delay Lines (EOF-DLs) are indispensable components in modern telecommunication and scientific research applications. These devices allow precise control of the time delay in light transmission, enabling technologies to function with high accuracy in fields like radar systems, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and fiber optic sensors.

Understanding Electric Optical Fiber Delay Lines

Electric Optical Fiber Delay Lines are specialized tools designed to adjust the timing of light pulses as they travel through fiber optics. By introducing a controlled delay, these systems can synchronize or desynchronize signals in a way that is highly beneficial in real-time communication or data processing systems. The core feature of EOF-DLs lies in their high delay precision, which can span from picoseconds to femtoseconds. This accuracy is crucial when minute timing differences can significantly impact system performance.

The structure of EOF-DLs is simple but robust. With high reliability, low insertion loss (as low as <0.1dB in polarization-related loss), and customization options for a wide range of applications, these devices are versatile. They are engineered to function across various wavelength ranges such as the C-band and L-band, commonly used in telecommunications.

Applications Across Industries

EOF-DLs are utilized across a variety of industries due to their ability to delay optical signals with incredible precision. In radar testing and calibration, for instance, these devices provide the necessary signal delay to simulate different distances and scenarios, allowing for better performance analysis. Similarly, in medical imaging, particularly optical coherence tomography (OCT), EOF-DLs help produce high-resolution cross-sectional images by fine-tuning the timing of reflected light.

In scientific research, fiber optic delay lines play a pivotal role in light interferometry, Fourier spectroscopic analysis, and optical coherence domain reflectometry (OCDR). These systems can measure minute changes in physical phenomena by precisely timing the interaction of light with matter, providing unparalleled detail in research data.

The Future of Optical Fiber Delay Lines

As the demand for faster and more accurate data processing grows, the role of EOF-DLs is only expected to expand. Innovations in optical networks, radar systems, and advanced imaging will require even more precise timing control, and delay lines will be essential in meeting these needs. In the future, we can anticipate the development of even smaller, more efficient EOF-DLs capable of handling larger bandwidths with minimal power consumption.

In conclusion, Electric Optical Fiber Delay Lines are critical to various fields of modern technology, enabling precision in everything from telecommunications to medical imaging. As we move towards a future driven by high-speed, data-rich applications, these devices will continue to play a foundational role.

Which reflectometer to choose for new fiber-optic lines?

Modernization of 100/400G networks and deployment of 5G networks at the proper quality level require testing of optical fiber communication lines (OFC). Choosing the right methods and additional instruments is critical when conducting bulk testing, as mistakes can be very costly.

If we talk any modern optical networks, fiber and coupling quality are critical. Modernization of existing networks involves checking their condition as well as laying new OFCs—testing the quality of connections. The higher the speed of fiber-optic lines, the more stringent the requirements for the quality of their diagnostics. And here the problem of choosing a testing methodology arises: for example, is "testing to the maximum" using bidirectional tests always the best option?

Bidirectional testing of OFCs with a reflectometer: the answer or new problems?

It is important to understand that fiber-optic communication is related to reflectometry. Without a high-quality optical reflectometer (OTDR), it is impossible to create a reliably operating fiber-optic link. The solution to the problem of testing comes down to the correct initial selection of equipment and determining the most suitable methodology.

There are two main methods of reflectometry: one-way (one compensation coil at one end of the line; launch cable box) or two-way (Bi-dir OTDR, with a compensation coil at the near end and the same at the far end). .

The direction of the emitted light can influence the test results. In any fiber, there is a difference in the return loss coefficients, and in one particular direction, the light loss may be greater.

Single-sided OTDR testing can miss many anomalies. Wire junctions with different return loss values can compensate for the signal loss in one orientation and attenuate it in the other. In addition, there are dead zones in which the OTDR does not record events.

The figure below shows an example of the difference in signal loss depending on the measurement direction. One side of the testing even shows a negative loss of -0.3 dB, which is, of course, impossible. In this case, an amplification effect is observed due to the difference in the backscatter coefficient (BSC) at the junction of the two cables.

Therefore, one-way OTDR testing is better suited for simple tests such as finding and locating fiber breaks and bends, assessing total signal attenuation in fibers, testing connectors, etc. In this case, there is no need to waste time on bidirectional testing. The main advantage of unidirectional fiber-optic testing is that it is enough to inspect and clean the fiber just once for any one line. This is important since contamination of the connectors can lead to failure of the fiber-optic line, which was working properly before testing. Sometimes customers insist on two-way "full testing," but this can be excessive and even harmful as it introduces an unnecessary risk of damage while cleaning the optical connectors.

Bidirectional fiber inspection without running around

One-sided tests are not accurate when laying new lines and monitoring the performance of FOCs. In such cases, industry standards require bidirectional testing with an optical time domain reflectometer (Bi-dir OTDR) measuring the signal at both ends of the line. This is necessary to identify anomalies that are not detected by conventional one-way reflectometry. In addition, there are unique cases where a line uses cables with different fiber diameters, where bidirectional effects can be important. Bi-dir OTDR testing makes it possible to average the measurement parameters and give a clear assessment of the quality of the fiber-optic link. Ultimately, it is possible to unambiguously determine whether the tested line supports high-speed data transfer. This saves time and money that the customer may lose if the cable system fails on launch.

Traditional bidirectional testing of fiber-optic links implies first measuring one side:

And then testing the optical line on the other side:

Then obtain the average parameters. This is an important job that requires manual data processing. It can be accelerated by using two similar instruments with two external cable routes simultaneously (the bidirectional reflectometer technique), but this requires additional equipment expenses.

Another effective technique is testing with an optical reflectometer with a closed circuit (loopback). This method involves using a reflectometer at one end of the line and a reference fiber loop at the other. This way, one can test two optical lines in both directions, alternately swapping cables. This is the most effective method in terms of cost and labor savings since it requires only one reflectometer, loop switching, and two compensation coils.

A major drawback of OTDR-loopback testing is the labor-intensive process of recording and merging test data. Often, manual work with data leads to errors, and repeated tests are needed. This problem has been solved in modern optical reflectometers, such as the VIAVI T-BERD/MTS-4000 V2.

When using such advanced devices, the task of specialists is reduced to the high-quality implementation of procedures for cleaning contamination of optical connectors and one-way checking of launch cables before starting bi-directional testing.

Thus, preference should be given to OTDR modules and platforms that offer the ability to choose any optical cable diagnostic technique with maximum automation. This choice should be made based on practical needs and not on the capabilities of existing equipment. Ultimately, this approach reduces the likelihood of OFC failures.

Commissioning of a system becomes vital once a new high voltage cable is installed. It ensures the proper and safe working of the system. High voltage commissioning comprises a number of comprehensive testing procedures, including insulation resistance testing, dielectric withstand testing, and time domain reflectometry, or TDR. These tests ensure the effectiveness of the cable in handling the necessary voltage for which it has been designed to work within its limits. Effective commissioning ensures the reliability of the newly installed cable and minimizes failures that may occur in operation.

High Voltage Maintenance

Besides commissioning, regular maintenance is important for satisfactory lifetime and safe operation of high voltage cables. As time progresses, cables wear out from environmental conditions, physical damage and thermal stress. Routine maintenance practices include:

Periodic visual inspections.

Testing of insulation resistance.

Partial discharge monitoring which detects electrical discharges that indicate insulation breakdown.

Proactive maintenance programs are available whereby the life of high voltage cables can be extended and the risk of unexpected outage reduced.

Cable Fault Location

Even with best efforts, faults do still occur in high voltage cables.

When they happen, prompt identification and correction become crucial to restorative service and safety. In advanced cable fault location techniques, acoustic testing and time domain reflectometry, in addition to electrical testing, are conducted to identify faults. This is because the precise location of the fault can be determined in no time, thus minimizing downtime and lowering the cost of repairing it. Effective fault location allows not only immediate recovery of service but also continuing to maintain customer confidence and reliability in their electrical providers.

Safety in High Voltage Operations

Safety is the core focus of all testing and maintenance procedures of high voltage cables. Safety measures must always be followed to the letter by a service technician handling high voltage systems. Commissioning, maintenance practices, and fault location techniques must be provided well by the personnel. These training programs will ensure that the staff is prepared to handle the complexities of high voltage systems and better manage any emergencies.

Besides, the high voltage cable testing through the comprehensive test regime helps increase safety in electric networks. The process will be able to indicate possible flaws and correct them before accidents, electrical fires, and service interruptions affect the customer energy supply.

High voltage cable testing has become a mandatory procedure for ensuring safety, effectiveness, and reliability in electrical systems. As modern infrastructures become increasingly reliant on high voltage cables, it becomes crucial to focus more on processes like high voltage commissioning, maintenance, and fault location. It not only promises protection against failure but also saves the power networks for even more extended periods of time.

Regulated by the need to keep the lights on while participating in the international vision for an operational excellent and public safe approach, investing in regular high-voltage cable testing and maintenance is a means of accomplishing just that.
