Distributed temperature sensing systems (DTS) are devices which measure temperatures by means of functioning as linear. Temperatures are recorded along the optical sensor cable, thus not at points, but as a continuous profile.

Distributed temperature sensing (DTS) measures temperature distribution over the length of an optical fiber cable using the fiber itself as the sensing element. Fiber optic temperature sensors are immune to the many environmental effects that compromise other measurement technologies, can be embedded and installed in locations traditional temperature sensors cannot and deliver an unprecedented level of spatial detail and data without sacrificing precision. Accurate temperature measurement is fundamental across various engineering disciplines.

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) systems detect strain changes and vibrations along optical fibers. This highly sensitive technology is used for monitoring critical infrastructure such as power cables, pipelines, or railroad tracks. DAS illuminates an optical fiber with laser pulses and measures the backscattered wave due to small random variations in the. It has many unique advantages, including, large coverage, high time-and-space resolution, convenient implementation, strong environment.

High-resolution temperature sensing with Raman-OFDR using optical communication fiber cables shows great potential as it allows the surveillance of several kilometers of underground transport facilities without the need for installing sensing equipment in the tunnels. Underground cable monitoring is crucial for maintaining reliability and preventing failures caused by environmental and mechanical threats. By detecting issues early, it enables proactive maintenance, reducing the risk of service disruptions and costly repairs. Current temperature measurement methods, including fiber-optic-based systems (DTS and LTS), involve high costs that limit their feasibility in medium-voltage networks, where more economically accessible alternatives are required. Contact us today to learn more about our praetorian sensing for underground power cable capabilities and above-ground power cable monitoring.
