[0042] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0043] It should be noted that the Distributed Fiber Optic Acoustic Sensing System (DAS system) is an advanced technology for monitoring acoustic signals based on the light scattering effect. Its core principle utilizes the Rayleigh scattering phenomenon generated when a laser beam propagates through an optical fiber. When a laser pulse propagates through the fiber, it interacts with tiny regions of non-uniform refractive index within the fiber core 241, generating Rayleigh scattered light. When the fiber is subjected to external acoustic vibrations, its length and refractive index undergo minute changes, leading to corresponding alterations in the intensity, frequency, and phase of the Rayleigh scattered light. By emitting laser pulses and receiving and analyzing the returned scattered light signals, the DAS system can convert these changes in optical signals into corresponding acoustic vibration information, thereby achieving real-time monitoring of points along the fiber.
[0044] Specifically, the system determines the location of vibration by measuring the time difference of scattered light at different locations, and judges the intensity and characteristics of vibration by analyzing the changes in the intensity and frequency of the scattered light, thereby identifying the event or structural change causing the vibration. The road defect detection device provided by this utility model is designed based on the DAS system.
[0045] Generally speaking, the core components of a DAS system mainly include the following:
[0046] Laser emission module: This module is the "signal source" of the DAS system, responsible for generating highly stable, narrow-linewidth laser pulses. The quality of the laser pulse directly affects the monitoring accuracy and sensitivity of the system. Erbium-doped fiber lasers are typically used, with output wavelengths generally in the 1550nm communication band to reduce losses during fiber optic transmission.
[0047] The optical receiving and processing module consists of a photodetector, an amplifier, and a signal processing circuit. The photodetector receives the Rayleigh scattered light signal returned from the optical fiber and converts it into an electrical signal. The amplifier amplifies the weak electrical signal for subsequent analysis. The signal processing circuit performs filtering, demodulation, and other operations on the amplified electrical signal to extract useful vibration information.
[0048] Fiber optic couplers and circulators: Fiber optic couplers are used to send laser pulses generated by the laser emitting module into the sensing fiber and guide the scattered light signal returned from the sensing fiber to the optical receiving module. Circulators isolate the emitted and received light, preventing strong emitted light from interfering with weak received light signals and ensuring accurate signal reception.
[0049] Example: A road defect detection device, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the system includes a distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1, a sensing fiber optic network 2, and a data processing unit 3. The sensing fiber optic network 2 is connected to the distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1, and the data processing unit 3 establishes bidirectional communication with the distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1 via Ethernet. The sensing fiber optic network 2 is used to sense acoustic wave signals at different depths of the road. The sensing fiber optic network 2 adopts a multi-layered longitudinal linear arrangement, and the density gradually decreases from top to bottom.
[0050] Preferably, the distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1, used to generate probe light pulses and demodulate the backscattered Rayleigh signal, is the core component of the entire detection device. It is responsible for transmitting 1550nm probe light pulses to the sensing fiber optic network 2 and receiving the scattered light signal returned from the fiber optic cable, converting it into a digital signal. It mainly consists of a laser emitter, a photodetector, and a signal processor. During installation, it should be placed in a well-ventilated, dry, and dust-free equipment room to ensure a stable operating environment.
[0051] Data processing unit 3 establishes bidirectional communication with distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1 via Ethernet. It processes, analyzes, and stores data transmitted from distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1 and can send control commands to it. Data processing unit 3 is located in the monitoring center or related control room and connected to distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1 via Ethernet to ensure smooth and stable communication. Data processing unit 3 should be equipped with corresponding software systems for data reception, analysis, storage, and display. Data processing unit 3 can analyze, process, and store acoustic wave signals collected by distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1. Through feature extraction and pattern recognition of the signals, it can determine whether road defects exist, as well as the location, type, and severity of the defects, and issue timely warnings, providing timely and accurate data support for road maintenance and management.
[0052] Reference Figure 1-3 The sensing fiber optic network 2 includes a surface fiber optic group 21, a middle fiber optic group 22, and a deep fiber optic group 23, which are arranged sequentially from top to bottom in the road. The road includes a surface layer 51, a base layer 52, and a subbase layer, arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The surface fiber optic group 21 is located at a depth of 5-10 cm in the road surface layer 51 and includes multiple optical fibers arranged in a straight line along the longitudinal direction of the road, with an adjacent fiber spacing of 0.5-1 m. The middle fiber optic group 22 is located at a depth of 20-40 cm in the road base layer 52 and includes multiple optical fibers arranged in a straight line along the longitudinal direction of the road, with an adjacent fiber spacing of 1-1.5 m. The deep fiber optic group 23 is located at a depth of 50-100 cm in the road base layer 52 and includes multiple optical fibers arranged in a straight line along the longitudinal direction of the road, with an adjacent fiber spacing of 1.5-2 m.
[0053] In the above technical solution, the sensor fiber optic network 2 adopts a layered structure with varying densities, designed based on the stress characteristics and defect probability of each road layer. The road surface layer 51 directly bears vehicle loads, resulting in a higher probability of defects. Therefore, the surface fiber optic group 21 is placed at a shallower depth with smaller fiber spacing to improve the detection accuracy of surface defects. As the depth increases, the load on the road base layer 52 gradually decreases, and the probability of defects is relatively lower. Therefore, the spacing of the middle and deep fiber optic groups 23 gradually increases, ensuring detection effectiveness while reducing device costs. Furthermore, the fibers in each fiber optic group are arranged in a straight line along the longitudinal direction of the road, reducing construction difficulty.
[0054] Preferably, a monitoring well 4 is provided at the edge of the road, and a trunk optical cable 6 is installed inside the monitoring well 4. The surface fiber group 21, the middle fiber group 22, and the deep fiber group 23 are all connected to the trunk optical cable 6. One end of the trunk optical cable 6 is connected to the distributed fiber optic acoustic wave sensing system 1. The setting of the monitoring well 4 facilitates the layout and maintenance of the trunk optical cable 6, and also protects the trunk optical cable 6 from damage by the external environment.
[0055] More preferably, a trunk optical cable distribution frame 7 is installed inside the monitoring well 4. Optical fibers from each layer are connected to the trunk optical cable distribution frame 7 via mechanical quick connectors, and then converged to the trunk optical cable 6. The trunk optical cable 6 is optically connected to the distributed optical fiber acoustic wave sensing system 1. The trunk optical cable 6 is a 24-core single-mode optical cable (GYTA-24B1). This connection method centralizes the signal transmission path of the optical fiber, reduces interference during signal transmission, and improves the stability of signal transmission.
[0056] Location of monitoring well 4: Monitoring well 4 shall be excavated at regular intervals (e.g., 500m-1km) along the edge of the road. The depth of monitoring well 4 shall be determined according to the road structure and groundwater level, and shall generally be lower than the depth of deep fiber optic group 23.
[0057] Reference Figure 2 , 4 The optical fibers in the surface fiber group 21, the middle fiber group 22, and the deep fiber group 23 all include a fiber core 241 and a protective structure disposed on the outer surface of the fiber core 241. The protective structure includes a buffer layer 2421, a load-bearing layer 2422, and an outer sheath 2423 arranged sequentially from the inside out, with the buffer layer 2421 covering the outer surface of the fiber core 241.
[0058] Preferably, in the surface fiber optic assembly 21, the buffer layer 2421 is silicone rubber with a Shore hardness of 40A and a thickness of 0.3±0.05mm, the load-bearing layer 2422 is a spiral wound layer of 304 stainless steel wire with a pitch of 1.5±0.2mm and a wire diameter of 0.2±0.02mm, and the outer sheath 2423 is a polyurethane sleeve made of polyurethane material with a thickness of 1.5±0.2mm and a silicon carbide wear-resistant coating with a Mohs hardness ≥9 on the surface.
[0059] Preferably, in the middle fiber group 22, the buffer layer 2421 has a density of 0.4 ± 0.05 g / cm³. 3 The foamed polyethylene is 1.0±0.1mm thick. The load-bearing layer 2422 is an aramid 1414 fiber woven mesh with a weaving density of 60±2 bundles / inch and a single filament tensile strength ≥3000N. The outer sheath 2423 is a polyethylene sheath made of high-density polyethylene material with a thickness of 2.0±0.2mm and an outer surface with a nano titanium dioxide antifouling layer with a contact angle >150°.
[0060] Preferably, in the deep fiber optic assembly 23, the buffer layer 2421 is a silica gel with a viscosity of 5000±500 cP and a filling rate of ≥99%; the load-bearing layer 2422 is a galvanized steel strip with a gap wrapping layer, the steel strip thickness is 0.5±0.05 mm, and the wrapping gap is ≤0.5 mm; the outer sheath 2423 is a polyvinyl chloride sheath made of corrosion-resistant PVC material with a thickness of 2.5±0.2 mm, and the inner side is composited with a surface resistivity of ≤0.1 Ω / m. 2 The copper foil shielding layer.
[0061] In the above technical solution, the outer surface of the fiber core 241 is provided with a protective structure consisting of a buffer layer 2421, a load-bearing layer 2422, and an outer sheath 2423. Regarding the buffer layer 2421, the surface layer is made of silicone rubber, which has good elasticity and weather resistance, and can buffer the vibration and impact of vehicle traffic on the surface optical fiber; the middle layer uses foamed polyethylene, which is lightweight and has certain heat insulation properties, reducing the impact of temperature changes in the base layer 52 on the optical fiber; the deep layer uses silicone gel, which has excellent sealing and chemical corrosion resistance, protecting the deep optical fiber from erosion by groundwater, etc. Regarding the load-bearing layer 2422, the surface layer of stainless steel wire spiral winding provides high tensile strength and wear resistance, resisting physical damage from surface construction and vehicle loads; the middle layer of aramid 1414 fiber woven mesh has high strength and lightweight characteristics, and can withstand the tensile force generated by the deformation of the base layer 52; the deep layer of galvanized steel strip gap wrapping has good compressive strength and corrosion resistance, adapting to the complex soil environment in deep layers. Regarding the outer sheath 2423, the surface polyurethane sheath possesses properties such as wear resistance, oil resistance, and aging resistance; the middle polyethylene sheath exhibits good chemical stability and excellent insulation performance; and the deep polyvinyl chloride sheath boasts high mechanical strength and strong corrosion resistance. Furthermore, the special coatings on each layer of the outer sheath 2423 further enhance the protective effect. For example, the surface silicon carbide wear-resistant coating improves the wear resistance of the surface optical fiber, the middle nano-titanium dioxide anti-fouling layer reduces contamination of the optical fiber by dust and oil, and the deep copper foil shielding layer reduces the impact of electromagnetic interference on the signal transmission of the deep optical fiber. These protective structures effectively improve the service life and stability of the optical fiber, ensuring the long-term reliable operation of monitoring work.
[0062] The working process and principle of this utility model are as follows: The laser emitter of the DAS system continuously emits high-stability, narrow-linewidth laser pulses (typically with a wavelength of 1550nm) into the main optical cable 6. The pulses are rapidly transmitted through the main optical cable 6 to the surface, middle, and deep fiber optic groups 23. When the laser pulses propagate in the optical fiber, Rayleigh scattering occurs with the tiny refractive index inhomogeneous regions within the fiber core 241, forming a receivable scattered light signal. After the laser pulses reach each layer of the fiber optic group, they are uniformly distributed along the longitudinal direction of the fiber, making each fiber segment a "distributed sensor." When defects appear in the road, defects in different structural layers will generate specific vibration signals:
[0063] Surface defects (such as cracks and potholes): Vehicle rolling or temperature changes can cause micro-vibrations in the surface asphalt concrete, with frequencies typically ranging from 50 to 500 Hz. The vibration amplitude decreases as the defect depth increases.
[0064] Mid-layer defects (such as loose base layer 52): Displacement or moisture penetration of base layer 52 material can cause low-frequency vibration (10-50Hz), which has a long duration and is periodic.
[0065] Deep defects (such as foundation settlement and underground cavities): Structural changes in deep soil or foundations can generate infrasound level vibrations (0.1-10Hz), which have a wide propagation range but attenuate slowly.
[0066] Each fiber optic layer is tightly coupled to the road material through a protective structure. Vibrations generated by defects are transmitted to the optical fibers through the solid, causing minute deformations (micrometer-level) in the fibers. This deformation changes the refractive index and length of the fiber, altering the intensity, phase, and frequency of Rayleigh scattered light—the greater the vibration intensity, the more pronounced the modulation amplitude of the scattered light.
[0067] The photodetector receives the scattered light signals returned from each layer of optical fiber in real time, converts the optical signals into electrical signals, and the distributed optical fiber acoustic wave sensing system 1 performs preliminary processing on the converted electrical signals before transmitting the data to the data processing unit 3 via Ethernet. The data processing unit 3 performs in-depth analysis and processing of the received electrical signals. Through time-domain and frequency-domain analysis of the signals, characteristic parameters of the acoustic wave signals, such as amplitude, frequency, and phase, are extracted. These characteristic parameters are compared with the acoustic wave signal characteristics of a preset normal road structure to determine if any anomalies exist. Based on the time difference and intensity differences of the signals received by different optical fiber groups, combined with the location information of each optical fiber (known depth and longitudinal position of each fiber in the road), the data processing unit 3 can determine the approximate location (depth and longitudinal range) of the defect. Simultaneously, based on the characteristic patterns of the abnormal signals, the type of defect, such as cracks, settlement, and cavities, is identified, and the severity of the defect is assessed. When the data processing unit 3 determines the existence of a road defect, it will issue corresponding warning signals, such as audible and visual alarms and SMS notifications, and display information such as the location, type, and severity of the defect on the display interface, allowing staff to understand the road conditions in a timely manner and take appropriate measures.
[0068] In summary, this invention employs a multi-layered optical fiber array with surface, middle, and deep layers, enabling monitoring of road structures at different depths. The surface fiber array 21, located at a depth of 5-10 cm in the road surface layer 51, can promptly detect defects such as cracks and potholes in the road surface. The middle fiber array 22, located at a depth of 20-40 cm in the road base layer 52, can monitor issues such as loosening and deformation of the base layer 52. The deep fiber array 23, located at a depth of 50-100 cm in the road base layer 52, can detect potential hazards such as settlement and cavities in the deep foundation. This multi-layered arrangement achieves comprehensive monitoring of the road from the surface to its depths, solving the problem that existing devices cannot simultaneously meet the monitoring needs at different depths.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope.
