A detection system in an aircraft includes an optical fiber arranged along a structure of the aircraft and affixed to the structure with clamps that are spaced apart along the structure. The optical fiber includes two or more sets of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). The system also includes a light source to generate light with two or more wavelengths for injection into the optical fiber, and processing circuitry to identify an overheat condition and monitor vibration experienced by the optical fiber based on reflected signals generated by the two or more sets of FBGs. Integrity of the clamps is indicated by monitoring the vibration.

There is described a method for interrogating optical fiber comprising fiber Bragg gratings (“FBGs”), using an optical fiber interrogator. The method comprises (a) generating an initial light pulse from phase coherent light emitted from a light source, wherein the initial light pulse is generated by modulating the intensity of the light; (b) splitting the initial light pulse into a pair of light pulses; (c) causing one of the light pulses to be delayed relative to the other of the light pulses; (d) transmitting the light pulses along the optical fiber; (e) receiving reflections of the light pulses off the FBGs; and (f) determining whether an optical path length between the FBGs has changed from an interference pattern resulting from the reflections of the light pulses.

Aspects of the present disclosure describe Rayleigh-based DTSS that utilizes few-mode fiber (FMF), which supports multiple spatial modes. For each spatial mode, a wavelength-scanning configuration gives the relative wavelength (or frequency) shift between two consecutive measurements. The temperature and strain changes can therefore be separated through different temperature/strain sensitivities of various mode-pairs. Advantageously, Rayleigh-based DTSS according to aspects of the present disclosure removes temperature-strain ambiguity, enhances measurement accuracy, reduces errors. and enables new features for multi-parameter sensing.
