Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) Distributed Temperature Sensing System (DSTS)
Project Name:
Rail Line Monitoring System in Heet, Heet Area, Riyadh, KSA
Client:
Saudi Arabia Railway (SAR)
Location:
Heet, Riyadh, KSA
Scope of Work:
- • A Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) wire-break emergency alert system. This system will consist of a shallowly buried coaxial cable, coupled with the existing grade, that will deform or break in the event of a sinkhole and provide a fast alert if a surface collapse occurs.
- • Short-term nodal passive seismic subgrade monitoring.
- • Implement passive seismic monitoring in the more susceptible zones beneath the rail line for the purpose of deploying a system quickly and being able to accelerate reopening of the rail line.
- • Long-term passive seismic subgrade monitoring using fiber optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS).
