Abstract
A study is performed on an optical fibre water sensor system which comprises U-bend sensor. It is used in process water systems, utilizing optical time domain reflectrometry (OTDR), signal processing techniques and artificial neural network pattern recognition. It was found that OTDR is capable of detecting attenuation as a function of distance along the fibre and therefore is able to locate position and changes in the sensor signals along the fibre.
