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 is a method that detects trauma for the first time, and it is impossible to detect external forces such as trauma or local abnormal tension or lateral pressure on the pilot cable before it is severed.

This detection method utilizes the phenomenon that scattered light is generated in the optical fiber when the optical pulse signal propagates through the optical fiber. By measuring the intensity change of the incoming scattered light over time, it is possible to detect the point where an abnormality has occurred in the optical fiber.

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.
