Development of a Fiber-Optic Sensing System for Train Vibration and Train Weight Measurements in Hong Kong

الملخص EN

A novel operation system to detect train vibration and train weight using FBG sensing network has been designed and tested in Hong Kong.

The purpose of the system is for real time condition monitoring of trains.

Because of the fast response of optical systems, the trains can be monitored in real-time during its normal service without any special arrangement.

Hence, the condition checking can be realized without any disruption on the operating condition of the railway system.
