Abstract

A method for determining tree infestation includes placing an optical fiber around a trunk of a tree; recording with a distributed acoustic sensor (DAS) box a Rayleigh signal reflected from the tree, along the optical fiber; processing the Rayleigh signal to obtain a processed signal; calculating a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the processed signal for the tree; and comparing the SNR to a threshold value and counting an alarm if the SNR is larger than the threshold value. The SNR is defined as a ratio between (1) a maximum value of a processed signal and (2) a minimum value of the processed signal.
