Analysis and Model Studies of Linear Monitoring Buses with Binary Fibre Optical Sensors

Theoretical aspects described in the paper consider power balance due to linear bus configuration and type of used sensors, in "dark" detection. Exemplary studies consider variants of buses constructed from sensors with adjusted "on" and "off. This enables construction of buses where output signal is logic or pseudo-logic. This buses can be generally classified as non-addressed (without possibility of determining location of working sensors, only allowing determining their number) or full measurement buses which are addressed (they allow to locate working sensors and gradation of attenuation parameters).
