- a change in the phase difference of the terms of the signals leads to a change in the interference pattern at the output of the optical splitter.
- the generation and injection of a probing pulse into an optical fiber the collection of information about the value of the signals of artificial reflections of the DOD is carried out using a reflectometer and a fiber-optic cable network branched on splitters. Information processing is performed by a computing device.
- the distance of the DOS placement is determined by the energy of the probing pulse, which is assigned to the DOS, and can reach tens of kilometers.
- DOD can be used in burglar alarm systems to control the impact on the moving and fixed parts of structures, barriers, gates and gates of the perimeters of small and extended territories, the impact on manhole covers of the well space, sensors for the position of culvert gratings.
- the use of DOD is allowed in explosive environments, in conditions of 100% humidity, with increased gas contamination and dust, when working in water, including sewage, in conditions of increased radiation, in conditions that exclude the possibility of using electrical appliances, in conditions of high power electromagnetic interference.

- the transport part ensures the delivery of probing pulses in the forward direction to all DODs, dividing the energy of the probing pulse into fractions that ensure the formation of reflection signals from each DOD connected to the optical circuit in the optimal range, not exceeding the maximum value of the amplitude of the reflection signals at the analog input.

- the sensitive part of the DOD is made of optical fibers and a splitter, the outputs of which are closed to each other by an optical fiber coil and form a closed loop for generating a reflection signal.

- the reflection signals from all devices are formed at the input of the receiving device as a result of the passage of shares of the probing pulse along the closed optical ring in the opposite direction through the branched optical network of the detector, on the branches of which the DOD is placed.
- the required value of the branch power to the DOD is much less than the initial power value at the output of the reflectometer and depends on the characteristics of the emitter, the sensitivity of the reflectometer receiving device and the distance of the DOD from the measuring device, which allows placing many branches to the DOD on one transport cable.

- the probing pulse of the reflectometer passes through the transport part of the fiber-optic circuit of the device and splitters, which reduce the energy of the fractions of the probing pulse to the sensitive part of each DOD.
- the probing pulse is divided into two parts, and then these parts follow the fibers of the coil in the opposite direction along the entire length of the coil. After the pulses pass through the coil, the two separated pulses are again added together at the splitter.
- the interference summation of two signals occurs and the value of this signal at the output of the splitter will depend on the phase difference of the terms of the signals, the value of which depends on the initial actual phase difference associated with the specific installation of the optical circuit of the device and its components.
- the phase difference changes in accordance with the force of the impact and the speed of the vibrations of the structure caused by this impact.

- the maximum removal of opposite sides during tension should preferably ensure the minimum bending radius of the rings in the zone fastening is not less than 4 ⁇ 1 mm
- the maximum travel of the moving part is not more than 12 ⁇ 2 mm, which, together with the elastic properties of metal rods, ensures the safe manufacture of the sensor, switching on and further adjustment, including the possibility of continuous monitoring of the sensor’s health and performance of its main function.
- the RCD has two main positions of the sensing part of the sensor, as shown in FIG. 12 - in the first, the fiber bending radius is more than the minimum critical value, and, preferably, without being limited, the probing pulse and the reflected signal move freely in the fiber core in both directions, and even more so at a diagnostic frequency with a shorter wavelength.
- the fiber bending radius is less than the critical value at which the probing pulse at the operating wavelength, reaching the fiber bending point, penetrates into the fiber cladding and is absorbed in it, as a result of which no reflection signal is formed, however, preferably, no limited, a pulse at a diagnostic frequency with a shorter wavelength continues to pass through the rings, creating reflection signals and confirming the correct operation of the sensor.
- the absorption of the energy of the probing pulse during compression of the bay occurs twice in each turn of the ellipsoidal shape of the deformation of the optical fiber 2001 , which makes it possible to significantly increase the minimum value of the bending radius of the ellipse, at which the energy of the probing pulse is sufficiently completely absorbed.
- the reflection signals are generated at the input of the receiving device as a result of the passage of a probing pulse in the forward and reverse directions through an extensive optical network, on the branches of which the CODEs are placed.
- the branched optical network acts as a transport and power divider of the probing pulse directed to the RCD.
- the required value of the branched power to the RCD is, as a rule, much less than the initial value of the power at the output of the reflectometer and depends on the characteristics of the emitter, the sensitivity of the receiver of the reflectometer and the distance of the RCD from measuring device, which allows to place many branches to the CODE on one transport cable.
- the value of the branched power for each CODE according to the principle of operation of the device can differ from each other by several times without impairing the operation of the device, which allows the use of couplers with a wide branching range.
- the power of the returned signal at the input of the receiving device does not exceed the saturation limits for the used receiving device and not below an acceptable level comparable to the noise level.
- the excess of the power of the reflected signal exceeding the saturation limits of the receiving device does not interfere with the operation of the device.
- the main result of collecting information from the RCD is the ratio of the power of the returned signal in one of the positions of the sensor to the value of the power of the returned signal in another position.
- the ratio of the power of the returned signal in different states of the CODE can reach tens or more times and be considered by the measurement system as discrete signals "there is a signal” or “there is no signal”.
- the returned signal is considered by the system as discrete "healthy” or "failed” signals.
- the ROD contains a housing with a lever mechanism that provides movement of optical fibers of the sensitive part of the ROD, a piece of a fiber-optic transport cable for connecting to an extensive optical network and transporting laser pulses in the forward and reverse directions, and a sensitive part, changes in the position of which lead to a change in its bandwidth and reflectivity, moreover, the geometric dimensions of the rings of the sensitive part and the extreme working positions of the pusher of the working body of the CODE should ensure the passage of the probing pulse signals at the operating frequency in one of the positions of the working body, blocking the signals of the probing pulse in another position of the working body and at the control frequency, the passage of signals probing pulse in any state of the working body.
- the CODE is an optical-mechanical design in which, due to a change in the position of the working body of the sensor, the power of the returned signals changes, for example, the design of the closest analogue described in patent RU 172554, included in this description by reference, with the exception of other execution of grips and holders, as described in this document.
- the use of rods with heat shrink tubes as grips instead of double heat shrink tubes greatly simplifies the sensor manufacturing process, and also provides the possibility of flexible adjustment of the sensor operation mode, due to the fact that the rods can be adjusted by means of screws.
- the change in the position of the working body is made when exposed to the elements of the working body.
- the ability of the sensor to change the value of the return pulse is made by changing the value of the bend radius and the orientation of the optical fiber of the sensitive part of the sensor is less than the value at which the integrity and elastic properties of the optical fiber are preserved, and the optical beam of the probing pulse at the bend points penetrates into the fiber cladding and absorbed in it.
- the construction of a multi-point optical sensor return circuit allows for the most efficient circuit with low energy losses of return signals to the receiving device, providing the maximum number of sensors on one line of the device. In this case, when constructing the system, preferably, without limitation, the duration of the probing pulse, the linear dimensions of the sensing elements and the transport cable are taken into account.
- optical delay lines are used, which are described previously with reference to Figs. 1-5 optical delay lines, made by connecting the reserve cores of a fiber-optic cable into an optical circuit, or correction coils consisting of the same type of optical fiber of the required length.
- the CODE operates as follows.
- the operation of the device is based on the following principles: a) receiving a reflection signal from the end of a line drawn to the sensor of sufficient power to reliably identify its location and magnitude of reflection; b) the ratio of the power of the reflection signal in the state of the maximum bandwidth of the sensor to the value of the power of the reflection signal in the state of the minimum bandwidth of the sensor and the line should provide an unambiguous determination of the state of the sensor for any indicated values of interference factors affecting the line and the sensor, such as, but not limited to, temperature, pressure, humidity, gas content, excess moisture, and the like.
- the ROD pusher is placed on some movable element of any fence to be controlled, and the body is placed on a fixed corresponding element of the fence, for example, but not limited to, a pole, a door slope, a wall, and the like in such a way that the pusher is placed in the direction of movement of the movable element of the fence.
- the RCD contains a sensor sensing element made in the form of two sets of optical fiber rings 2003, each set of rings is made with its grips 2007 - two at the edges on each set of rings 2001 and two in the middle on a common holder 2006.
- the common holder 2006 is fixed by means of screws 2008 to the movable part of the sensor housing moved by the working body of the sensor, and the other two holders 2006 are fixed to the fixed part of the housing (not shown in the drawing).
- the distance between the extreme grips should ensure the complete release of one ring to the size of a circle and the compression of the second ring to an elliptical shape and vice versa in a different position of the sensor.
- the principle of operation of the sensor is similar to that of the sensor in the previous embodiment, except that the reflection signals from different rings of the sensor are in inverse relation to each other, which provides continuous diagnostics of the sensor's health by two reflection signals.
- the state of the sensor can be read by two independent reflectometers, taking into account the inversion of the signals.
- the distance between the extreme positions of the grippers should ensure the complete release of the rings before the size of a circle and the compression of both rings to the size of an ellipse of the required shape.
- the operation of the RCD is similar to the operation of the RCD described previously, except that two independent rings are used, which allows continuous diagnostics of the health of the sensor on two reflection signals.
- the state of the sensor can be read by two independent reflectometers.
- the sensitive part of the RCD in the case of a serial connection of the RCD is a closed loop in the form of optical fibers coiled into rings and attached to the fiber optic cable without a splitter, and a single signal about the state of the sensors is formed according to the "OR" logic.
- the splitter and fiber optic cables of the sensors are installed in the outer housing of the optical circuit of the device (coupling), while the splitter is closed by a common optical circuit of all sensors, so that in one of the positions of the object, the rings of all sensors are in the state, allowing free passage of the probing pulse signal through all sensors, and if the state of the object changes so that at least one of the sensors changes the shape of the ring into a state in which the probing pulse signal is absorbed in the optical fiber sheath, the reflection signal at the operating frequency of the laser radiation disappears, but stored at the diagnostic frequency.
- the probing pulse from the reflectometer passes through the transport part of the fiber-optic circuit to the sensitive part of the RCD.
- the laser pulse propagates in the fiber with virtually no loss.
- the reflection signal enters the input of the receiving device, signaling the presence of a reflection signal from a certain sensor, that is, with a certain time delay.
- the radius of the fiber bend in the elastic range is less than the value at which the probing pulse, reaching the place of the fiber bend, begins to penetrate into the fiber cladding and is absorbed in it, as a result of which the signal does not pass through a closed loop and no reflection is formed.

- an end fiber optic sensor is declared, containing a body with a pusher that provides a change in the position of the rings of the optical fibers of the sensitive part and a sensitive part made of a splitter, the outputs of which are closed to each other by an optical fiber folded into a ring and together form a closed loop, wherein said ring is connected to said pusher and said body by means of rods which, together with the ring, are extended inside a respective heat shrink tube.
