Abstract

The invention discloses a distributed optical fiber oil channel leakage monitoring method and device based on interference theory. The monitoring system needs to lay an optical cable along the channel, and forms a fiber micro oscillation sensor with the fiber in the cable. When the channel has leakage, it will generate leakage noise, thus the fiber micro oscillator sensor can measures the micro oscillation and stress change around the channel, and it can fix on the leakage position quickly and accurately. The device is made up of distributed fiber micro oscillation sensor, guiding fiber and micro oscillation detector. The technology not only can detect the leakage, but also can detect the event which can cause the leakage, and it can send out alarm and accurate localization. The device has high sensitivity and localization precise, and the disturbance ability is strong, and it is reliable.
