AbstractPhase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry (Ф-OTDR) is an effective way to detect vibrations and acoustic waves with high sensitivity, by interrogating coherent Rayleigh backscattering light in sensing fiber. In particular, fiber-optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) based on the Ф-OTDR with phase demodulation has been extensively studied and widely used in intrusion detection, borehole seismic acquisition, structure health monitoring, etc., in recent years, with superior advantages such as long sensing range, fast response speed, wide sensing bandwidth, low operation cost and long service lifetime. Significant advances in research and development (R&D) of Ф-OTDR have been made since 2014. In this review, we present a historical review of Ф-OTDR and then summarize the recent progress of Ф-OTDR in the Fiber Optics Research Center (FORC) at University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC), which is the first group to carry out R&D of Ф-OTDR and invent ultra-sensitive DAS (uDAS) seismometer in China which is elected as one of the ten most significant technology advances of PetroChina in 2019. It can be seen that the Ф-OTDR/DAS technology is currently under its rapid development stage and would reach its climax in the next 5 years.

Zusammenfassung In diesem Beitrag wird ein neuartiger Ansatz zur Schadensdetektion in Stromversorgungskabeln vorgestellt. Die Funktionalität des Messsystems kann bezüglich des durch Makrobiegungen induzierten Anstiegs des Dämpfungsbelags verifiziert werden. Durch den verwendeten Integrationsansatz sind Mantelschäden im Stromversorgungskabel detektierbar, wodurch langfristige Ausfallgründe frühzeitig erkannt werden. Über eine integrierte optische Faser und ein optisches Zeitbereichsreflektometer kann unabhängig von der elektrischen Energieübertragung im Kabel eine exakte und effiziente Schadenslokalisierung sichergestellt werden, was wiederum eine Zeit- und Kostenersparnis zur Folge hat.
