Title
Shape Sensing of Polymer Core Composite Electrical Transmission Lines Using FBG Sensors
Abstract
Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors are optical strain gauges embedded in an optical fiber. Using elementary beam theory and geometry, it is shown that 3-D shape sensing can be performed using parallel arrays of sensors on the surface of a cylindrical rod. The mathematics is explained in detail. Because FBG sensors are immune to electromagnetic interference, they can be used to perform shape sensing on cylindrical objects utilized in high-voltage transmission systems, such as the core support rods of high-temperature low-sag conductors.
