Abstract

The invention provides a dynamic BOTDA-based multi-core cycle series-connection fiber-shaped sensor. The fiber-shaped sensor comprises a multi-core fiber, a single-mode fiber and multi-core fiber Fan-in device, a single-mode fiber and multi-core fiber Fan-out device and a plurality of single-mode fibers, wherein the plurality of single-mode fibers are connected between the Fan-in device and the Fan-out device. By a mode of sequentially and circularly connecting a plurality of fiber cores of a multi-core fiber in series, the function of expanding the plurality of fiber cores to form a one-dimensional topological optical path is achieved. The fiber-shaped sensor can used for a shape sensing device of a dynamic BOTDA sensing system, can be widely used for monitoring health of an intelligent structure and also can be used for a stressed skin structure of a robot or an airplane wing, and the shape change thereof is detected in real time.
