Abstract The safety and integrity requirements of aerospace composite structures necessitate real-time health monitoring throughout their service life. To this end, distributed optical fiber sensors utilizing back Rayleigh scattering have been extensively deployed in structural health monitoring due to their advantages, such as lightweight and ease of embedding. However, identifying the precise location of damage from the optical fiber signals remains a critical challenge. In this paper, a novel approach which namely Modified Sliding Window Principal Component Analysis (MSWPCA) was proposed to facilitate automatic damage identification and localization via distributed optical fiber sensors. The proposed method is able to extract signal… More >
