DISTRIBUTED FIBER SENSING PRINCIPLES & APPLICATIONS

The distributed fiber sensing provides real-time and reliable data that allows to make fast enlightened strategic decisions in various applications. It is essential to learn its principles and the way to use it to take all its advantages.
By following this course, the attendees will have a first experience of distributed fiber sensing using FEBUS’ devices and will understand how these technologies can meet their specific issues. The course will be performed by the FEBUS’ experienced scientists, experts in the distributed fiber optic sensing topics.

1. Understand the usage of optical fibers as sensors.
2. Learn about the diverse distributed fiber sensing technologies and their applications to vibration/acoustic (DAS), temperature (DTS) and strain (DSS) sensing.
3. Introduction to the usage of DAS, DTS and DSS instruments.
    

This interactive course must be considered as a first approach to distributed fiber optic sensing.
It takes place in our Test Center and is designed for an audience of 8 to 9 people. An active participation of attendees is required.

The course is organized in two phases with a theorical part followed by hands-on practical exercises. During the practical part, the attendees work in small groups of 2 to 3 people.

In the end, the participants of the course understand the principles of distributed fiber optic sensing technologies. They can appreciate how it is relevant to them and how to implement it.

All documents are provided.

As the course takes place in our Test Center, the attendees must wear safety footwear.

The course lasts 2 or 3 days according to the request. The attendees practice all FEBUS’ devices (DAS, DTS and DSS) or focus on two of them depending on the duration of the training.
