Abstract

This paper reports on measurement method for the fiber optic strain monitoring of overhead contact line systems of trains. We used fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors to measure the strain variation of overhead contact line. FBG sensors were attached on the contact line and connected to the monitering system with optical fibers. The monitering system with FBG sensors showed very good sensitivity to measuring strain variation and this system could be applied to the overhead contact line of KTX.
