The invention provides a realizing device of a large-
capacitance self-healing
optical fiber sensing network based on a
light spectrum type
optical fiber sensor and a realizing method. The device comprises a
light source, wherein the light transmitted from the
light source sequentially passes through a coupler, n
layers of sensing subnetworks, a wave length converter, a work
optical fiber, a
wavelength division
multiplexer, an optical
fiber, a receiving demodulator and a computer; and Maxn=the
total energy of the
light source / the energy required by each layer of sensing
subnetwork. The invention is additively provided with a spare optical
fiber and a cross connector in the network, thereby guaranteeing that the
optical fiber sensing network can normally work when an optical
fiber link goes wrong, so that the network has
survivability. The number of sensors multiplexed by the sensing network is the sum of each layer of sensor, wherein, if each layer has k sensors, the number of the sensors is k*n. Maxk=the gross spectrum width of the light source / scanning resolution, thereby greatly expanding the
capacitance of the sensing network. The
light spectrum of the
broadband light source is divided into m sections, Maxm=the gross spectrum width of the light source / the scanning resolution, the m sections are simultaneously scanned, and the scanning time can be shortened at the 1 / m of the original time, thereby improving the sensing speed of the sensing network.
