The OFDR allows the detection/localization of the reflecting discontinuities inside an optical fiber.
Main functionalities:
Acquisition of the distance between each discontinuity or between an arbitrary pair of them.
Distributed measurement and temperature monitoring
Detection of the behaviour along a section of the fiber between two sensors (compression, expansion)
Key points:
Measurement of the fiber strains over long distances.
Temperature monitoring according to fiber thermal expansion coefficients.
Detection of any kind of reflecting discontinuity along the fiber.
No restriction on light wavelenght source.
Highly competitive costs
