Distributed Acoustic Sensing: holistic real-time information for efficient railways
Much has been written in recent years about the possible applications and potential of Fibre Optic Sensing (FOS) in the railway sector. Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) has especially shown itself to be the member of the family of FOS technologies that provides an ideal basis for railway applications. The technical development in the areas of sensor technology and edge computing, as well as the use of ever better algorithms based on artificial intelligence, has been rapid. A whole range of different use cases has now been deployed and validated several times in the field....
