Abstract
Systems and methods for operating a distributed fiber optic sensing (DFOS)/distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) system include a length of optical sensing fiber suspended aerially by a plurality of utility poles and in optical communication with a DFOS interrogator/analyzer. The method includes operating the DFOS/DAS system while manually exciting more than one of the poles to obtain frequency response(s) of the excited poles; contrastively training a convolutional neural network (CNN) with the frequency responses obtained; classifying the utility poles using the contrastively trained CNN; and generating a profile map of the excited poles indicative of the classified utility poles.
