Track monitoring fiber optic cable
Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) over tens of kilometers of fiber optic cables is well-suited for monitoring extended railway infrastructures. As DAS produces large, noisy datasets, it is important to optimize algorithms for precise tracking of train position, speed, and the. Effective monitoring of these transitions is important to ensure track safety and to evaluate the effectiveness of maintenance. Train-induced ground motion signals are recorded as continuous “footprints” in the DAS recordings. Network Rail High Speed (NRHS), railway asset manager for HS1 Ltd, have been trialing innovative fibre-optic sensing technology to help keep hundreds of assets fit for purpose. We monitor track condition, detect trespass and cable security events, and alert operators to natural hazards such as landslides or rock falls. Testing at TTC's High Tonnage Loop showed how Fiber.
