Nuisance alarm reduction: Using a correlation based algorithm above differential signals in direct detected phase-OTDR systems

Abstract: Significant research efforts have focused on techniques for alleviating the nuisance alarm rate (NAR) in the field of φ-OTDR pattern recognition systems. Unfortunately, ephemeral events were mostly neglected in previous research, and algorithms meant for improving classification accuracy were emphasized at the cost of acquiring a very large number of traces. This problem engendered an additional source of NAR in a specific class of events. The proposed solution uses a novel correlation based wrapper on top of … Show more

“…The differential signals play a very important role in detecting any perturbation by eliminating the common unwanted signals that normally exist at the respective spatial location of each acquired time data vector [24]. A space data set defines a collection of space data vectors along the time domain for several consecutive spatial locations, which is used in the MF technique [23]. When processing differential signals, each processing window is defined to be a collection of all space data sets within two time data sets (as the differential signals process two time data sets in a single operation).…”

“…An overview of the MF technique is presented here. This algorithm was chosen because of its ability to effectively remove noise effects [23], and hence it can better assist S-scan, T-scan and ST-scan methods. Mathematically, the correlation of adjacent data sets in the space domain for the MF approach is defined as follows:…”
