Fiber-optic Sensors – distributed sensing, temperature,
Fiber-optic sensors are optical sensors based on fiber devices. They are often used for sensing temperature and/or mechanical stress.
Read MoreHome / Principle of DTS Fiber Optic Sensing
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. True distributed acoustic sensors (DAS) use the Rayleigh scattering signal to derive the coherent full acoustic field (amplitude, wavelength, and phase) over a wide dynamic range allowing for characterisation of localised acoustic or seismic environments. Heat transport in the subsurface is an important phenomenon for many hydrogeologic processes, ranging from the shallow vadose zone to the deep geologic disposal of nuclear waste.

Distributed temperature sensing systems (DTS) are optoelectronic devices which measure temperatures by means of optical fibres functioning as linear sensors. Temperatures are recorded along the optical sensor cable, thus not at points, but as a continuous profile. A high accuracy of temperature determination is achieved over great distances. Typically the DTS systems can locate the temperature to a spatial resolution of 1 m with accuracy to within ±1 °C at a resolution of 0.01 °C. Measurement distan
