The study of radiation effect on Raman Distributed optical fiber Temperature Sensor

Abstract

The rapid development of big data and artificial intelligence technology is inseparable from the acquisition of massive basic data, and the data is acquired by sensors. The Raman Distributed optical fiber Temperature Sensor (RDTS) is a kind of sensor with many advantages, such as: anti-electromagnetic interference, intrinsic safety, small size, water and high temperature resistance. It has been applied in many fields for fast and continuous temperaturemeasurement. However, due to the rapid attenuation of transmitted light and the temperature error in radiated environment, it has not been applied innuclear field. Therefore, in order to improve the temperature accuracy of RDTS in radiated environment and provide basic data for advanced control. This paper studies the radiation effect on RDTS. Analyzesthe radiation damage mechanism and radiation damage influencing factors of RDTS. Proposes measures to improve the anti-radiation performance and provides four useful calibration methodsfortemperature error. Among them, two calibration methods have been proved right by experiments.
