The invention discloses a distributed fiber optic sensing technology and a system for monitoring of deformation of a high arch dam, which relate to the field of crossing of a dam safety monitoring technology and a fiber optic sensing technology and are used for overcoming the defect of a conventional means for the monitoring of the deformation of the high arch dam and filling the blank of using distributed fiber optic sensing for the monitoring of the deformation of a dome dam. Aiming at the characteristics and the difficulties of the dome dam, two kinds of unique curved fiber optic packaging structures, namely, fiber optic monitoring panels in a weakly curved beam type and a micro-bending beam type, are provided. Based on error analysis and curved beam height control-camber beam segmentation construction, excellent performance, high reliability, long service life, convenience and practicability of monitoring of fiber optic deformation are ensured. A convenient and practical layout installation mode in an arch dam and a gallery, a vertical shaft and a footrill of a dam foundation is provided, so that online remote metering on multi-dimensional and large-scale time-space broad coverage of three components (radial horizontal displacement, tangential horizontal displacement and vertical displacement) of internal deformation of the arch dam, the dam foundation and a dam abutment is realized. An optical demodulation instrument is multifunctional and can be used for metering concrete temperature, reservoir water temperature, slit level in front of a dam, reservoir sedimentation and the like.
