Localization and Discrimination of the Perturbation Signals in Fiber Distributed Acoustic Sensing Systems Using Spatial Average Kurtosis
2018
Overview
Location error and false alarm are noticeable problems in fiber distributed acoustic sensing systems based on phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry (Φ-OTDR). A novel method based on signal kurtosis is proposed to locate and discriminate perturbations in Φ-OTDR systems. The spatial kurtosis (SK) along the fiber is firstly obtained by calculating the kurtosis of acoustic signals at each position of the fiber in a short time period. After the moving average on the spatial dimension, the spatial average kurtosis (SAK) is then obtained, whose peak can accurately locate the center of the vibration segment. By comparing the SAK value with a certain threshold, we may to some degree discriminate the instantaneous destructive perturbations from the system noise and certain ambient environmental interferences. The experimental results show that, comparing with the average of the previous localization methods, the SAK method improves the pencil-break and digging locating signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by 16.6 dB and 17.3 dB, respectively; and decreases the location standard deviation by 7.3 m and 9.1 m, respectively. For the instantaneous destructive perturbation (pencil-break and digging) detection, the false alarm rate can be as low as 1.02%, while the detection probability is maintained as high as 95.57%. In addition, the time consumption of the SAK method is adequate for a real-time Φ-OTDR system.
