Abstract
The one-dimensional nature of the optical fibre offers the possibility for its use in a range of distributed measurement sensors. Thus, in addition to all the accepted advantages offered by optical fibres in the sensing function, one has the advantage of a knowledge of the spatial distribution of the measurand. Methods so far explored for implementation of both intrinsic and extrinsic distributed systems are discussed, and prospects for the future are reviewed.
