3 Hardware Configurations for Building Distributed Fiber DAS Systems
Overview
Our company as a professional distributed fiber optic acoustic sensing DAS system hardware equipment manufacturers, for different customers, we provide a different system building program, there are 3 ways to build, the following are described.
Applicable users: Users focus on business domain knowledge, do signal data identification analysis, algorithms, don't want to spend too much energy on hardware development, want to realize distributed fiber optic vibration system at low cost for enterprise/university research labs, team with software programming capability.
Build steps.
Buy distributed fiber optic vibration sensing system DVS/DAS integrated module
Buy high-speed DAQ cards for distributed fiber optic vibration sensing systems
Buy an IPC and power supply (you can use your own computer instead), which needs to support PCIE interface.
Connect the sensing fiber optic cable and write software to do data processing on the computer according to your business area
Wiring of the DAS Integration Module and Data Acquisition Card.
Option 2: Built using separated components such as lasers, acousto-optic modulation, EDFA, and balanced detectors.
Applicable users: university laboratories, graduate students of scientific research institutions and R&D departments of enterprises that are good at hardware, optical devices, FPGAs, etc., familiar with fiber optic sensing principles, familiar with DVS/DAS optical paths, and want to implement distributed fiber optic vibration systems independently.
Build steps.
Buy optical devices such as narrow linewidth lasers, EDFA, AOM, Raman amplifiers, photodetectors, etc.
Buy high-speed DAQ cards for distributed fiber optic vibration sensing systems
Device connection, debugging, and solving various problems encountered during debugging
Acquire data and do signal demodulation processing to implement your own software program.
We integrated DAS module, DAS capture card, and computer are integrated into a chassis, users can get their hands directly plugged into the optical fiber for use, the use of pre-installed DEMO software for data acquisition and export data.
