Abstract

This paper studies a fire detection system using an optical fiber linear detector which can minimize damage from a fire by the most adaptable even in poor environmental conditions such as a tunnel or utility-pipe conduit vulnerable to fire. Using a strand of optical fiber, temperature can be displayed in intervals of meters and a fire can be detected remotely from a distance of several kilometers. Thanks to its strengths such as high reliability and long life, it is widely applied in harsh environments in the overseas. Therefore demands are expected to grow greatly in Korea as well. However, all optical signal drive and analysis module except for the optical fiber linear detector, tend to rely on import. Firstly this study deduced the location and the method of processing signals measuring temperature by using the optical fiber linear detector in order to develop a technology for a domestic model of fire detection system. Secondly this study designed and manufactured the optical analysis test module, and then we checked its performance.

본 논문은 화재위험성이 높은 터널 및 지하공동구 등 열악한 환경조건에서도 가장 적응성 있는 화재감지로 화재피해를 최소화 할 수 있는 광섬유선형감지기를 이용한 화재감지시스템에 관한 연구이다. 한가닥의 광섬유를 이용하여 m 단위의 온도표시 및 수 km 이상의 장거리 화재감시가 가능하고, 고신뢰성 및 장수명 등 다양한 장점으로 인해 국외의 경우 열악한 장소에 대부분 채용하고 있는 시스템이다. 이로 인해 국내에서도 향후 그 수요가 크게 증가될 것으로 예상된다. 하지만, 현재까지 광섬유선형감지기를 제외한 광신호 구동 및 분석 모듈은 100% 수입에 의존하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현재 수입의 의존도를 줄이고자 광섬유선형감지기를 이용한 화재감지시스템의 국산화 기술개발을 위해 1차적으로 위치 및 온도 측정의 신호처리 방법을 도출하고, 신호처리 검증을 위해 광신호처리 시험모듈을 설계 제작하여 그 성능을 확인하였다.
