AI Article Synopsis

  • The paper introduces a new sensor system designed with a star-ring-bus architecture for enhanced effectiveness.
  • This system combines a star topology for the main structure with bus subnet branches, improving reliability by adding remote nodes and switches.
  • A fiber ring laser is utilized to boost the signal-to-noise ratio, ultimately enhancing the overall reliability and capacity of fiber sensor systems.

Article Abstract

This work presents a novel star-ring-bus sensor system and demonstrates its effectiveness. The main trunk of the proposed sensor system is a star topology and the sensing branches comprise a series of bus subnets. Any weakness in the reliability of the sensor system is overcome by adding remote nodes and switches to the ring and bus subnets. To construct the proposed star-ring-bus sensor system, a fiber ring laser scheme is used to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the sensor system. The proposed system increases the reliability and capacity of fiber sensor systems.
