Problems solved by technology

[0003] There is still a certain gap between current sensors and smart sensors for simultaneous multi-point, multi-parameter and multi-dimensional state measurement, and more sensitive point integrated sensing elements and manufacturing technologies are needed to achieve perfect and accurate reflection of material changes The demand for regular information collection makes the sensor develop in the direction of distributed networked intelligent sensing in the future, which is also an urgent problem to be solved in the development of intelligent sensor technology.

Embodiment 1

[0026] An intelligent skin based on a small-size distributed optical fiber sensing array proposed by the present invention includes an epidermal sensing array, an embedded optical fiber sensing array, a data acquisition system module, and a data processing pattern recognition module. The so-called small size is proposed for the current distributed optical fiber sensing mainly used for sensing along several kilometers or even tens of kilometers. It refers to any small range, which can be understood as the range of square centimeters or less.

[0027] like figure 1 As shown in the figure, the body of the smart skin is made of a flexible material. All-fiber interferometric sensors are embedded in the flexible material to form a distributed optical fiber sensing array. The surface of the flexible material is covered with exposed sensors, which are embedded in the epidermis by a V-shaped groove. The flexible material is initially in a liquid state, which can be poured as needed, po...

Embodiment 2

[0031] In order to help understand the present invention and at the same time visually demonstrate the effect of the present invention on intelligent recognition, the following description is based on an example. First, the data set is processed, and Matlab is used to process the data accordingly. The data processing process includes: data smoothing, data normalization, peak-to-peak extraction, calculation of median, variance, mean, calculation of short-term zero-crossing rate, and calculate the wavelet packet energy.

[0032] Among them, data smoothing: use the smooth function, including moving, lowess, loess, sgolay, rlowess, lowess and other methods can be used, including different degrees of smoothing coefficient optional, mainly to remove data burr interference; data normalization : Use the built-in normalize function to unify the data into a consistent range; peak-to-peak value extraction: Use the built-in findpeaks function to extract the valley value, then flip the dat...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of intelligent optical fiber sensing, in particular to an intelligent skin based on a small-sized distributed optical fiber sensing array. Background technique [0002] Sensors are the core components of intelligent systems and the Internet of Things, and are the key to all data acquisition and intelligent sensing implementation. With the development of various intelligent systems and technologies, their importance has become increasingly prominent. From the current point of view, my country's sensor production level is five to ten years behind developed countries, the accuracy of scientific testing instruments is 0.5-1 orders of magnitude lower than that of similar products at home and abroad, and the technical level reached by intelligent sensors is not mature. Therefore, it is of great strategic significance to carry out research on new sensors, sensor arrays and improve existing sensor technology for the developme...
