Description
Book SynopsisDistributed optical fiber sensors (DOFS) are capable of revealing information about temperature, strain, vibration, pressure, or magnetic field from anywhere along the fiber. This book explains their physical principles, unique benefits, broad categories, implementation aspects, and performance criteria.
Trade Review"The most authoritative account available of an important and ever expanding technology. The text encompasses basic principles, established and emerging application and insights into ongoing development. It will appeal to the student as well as the practising engineer and also presents insight into current and prospective applications…promises to become the essential reference text for many years to come!" –From the Foreword by Prof. Brian Culshaw, University of Strathclyde,Glasgow
