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.
