DISTRIBUTED OPTICAL FIBER SENSING FOR SMART CITY APPLICATIONS

摘要

Aspects of the present disclosure describe distributed optical fiber sensing for smart city applications in which distributed optical fiber sensing is integrated with a surveillance system into a single system such that the distributed sensing system may detect an event of interest and the surveillance system including cameras may be reoriented in response to verify and/or examine and/or acquire video of the event. Of particular advantage such distributed fiber sensing may include distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) for vibrational sensing and distributed temperature sensing (DTS) for temperature sensing. The integrated system employs shared optical fiber transport for the distributed sensing and the surveillance.
