Conventionally, there are few methods for detecting abnormalities in underground objects due to excavation and ground subsidence, and in the case of power cables, it is often unknown until insulation breaks down after inspection due to deterioration due to damage, and power outages due to insulation breakdown. It has been difficult to implement preventive measures immediately after receiving an injury. In addition, it is only when gas or water leaks occur in gas pipes, water pipes, etc. that it becomes clear that the cause was trauma sustained in the past.

In addition, there is a method of burying important buried objects with a sensor attached, but this is a local detection method and is not a linear sensor.However, if an insulated wire such as a pilot cable is used as a sensor, cutting it This method detects external force only by detecting external force such as external force such as external force such as external force such as external force such as external force such as external force such as external force such as external force or local lateral pressure of the pilot cable before it is severed.

Furthermore, the sensitivity of detection using a pilot cable buried underground may be severely limited by underground stray currents and electromagnetic induction of the underground cable. In addition, when detecting in the longitudinal direction when buried underground, countermeasures against corrosion of the sensor are required.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a state in which an optical fiber 1 is spirally wound around a spacer 2 in a line sensor 5 in the system of the present invention.
The spacer 2 is provided with cutout portions at a predetermined pitch, and the optical fiber 1 is held in the spacer 2 in a wave shape in the longitudinal direction by passing through the cutout portions one after another. Therefore, when lateral pressure P or tension Q occurs, compression or tension is generated inside the line sensor 5, causing slight bending in the portion of the optical fiber 1 in contact with the spacer 2, which increases transmission loss. .

The material of the spacer 2 is preferably plastic or rubber, which are light and have high extensibility, but metal may be used when the spacer is installed in an area where lateral pressure is likely to occur.

When the line sensor 5 is drawn in and laid, if the line sensor 5 does not use the messenger wire method, a slight bend will occur in the optical fiber 1 from the time of installation. By making both ends loose, no tension is applied to the line sensor. Alternatively, a messenger wire may be attached so as to pass through the center of the cross section of the spacer 2.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 4, by equipping one end of the optical fiber 1 with a well-known optical pulse measuring device,
You can know the location of the abnormality. When a pulse signal is transmitted from the optical pulse measuring device 10, scattered light is generated within the optical fiber as the pulse signal travels through the optical fiber. Of this scattered light, by measuring over time the intensity change of the scattered light that returns in the direction of the pulse measuring device 10, the point where an abnormality has occurred in the optical fiber can be detected.

In other words, when a pulse signal is transmitted with no external pressure applied to the optical fiber, the scattered light that returns to the pulse measuring instrument decays smoothly over time, but when external pressure is applied to the optical fiber, that part Since the amount of transmission loss in the optical fiber increases, the intensity change of the scattered light returning to the pulse measuring device becomes a waveform that rapidly attenuates at a certain time when the intensity of the scattered light is viewed in time series.

Therefore, by reading the time at which the sudden change occurs, it is possible to detect the location of optical loss in the optical fiber, that is, the location where external pressure is applied.
