When construction occurs on the ground, the power transmission pipe installed in the ground near the place where the construction occurs and the transmission line passing through the inside of the power transmission pipe will be damaged due to the influence of the construction on the ground. there is a possibility.
In the past, workers had to make regular patrols to check whether power transmission pipes and power transmission lines were affected by construction work on the ground. However, in order to carry out such patrols efficiently, it is desirable to carry out patrols in accordance with the occurrence of construction work.
[0003]
If you want to do the construction here, you need to notify the municipality in advance. If the work is reported to the municipality, the place where the work occurred and the date and time when the work occurred can be known in advance, so it is possible to make a patrol according to the occurrence of the work.
[0004]
However, in recent years, there have been many unlicensed works (also called unreported works or unapplied works) that have not been notified to the municipalities. In the case of such unauthorized construction, it is not possible to know in advance the location and date and time of the construction.
[0005]
Therefore, a technology that can detect the occurrence of construction work is desired. As an example of such a technique, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique for detecting the occurrence of construction work by vibration detected by a vibration sensor or an optical fiber.

Embodiment for carrying out the invention
[0014]
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. The following descriptions and drawings have been omitted or simplified as appropriate for the sake of clarification of the explanation. Further, in each of the following drawings, the same elements are designated by the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted as necessary.
[0015]

First, a configuration example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 1.
[0016]
As shown in FIG. 1, the optical fiber sensing system according to the first embodiment includes an optical fiber 10 and an optical fiber sensing device 20. Further, the optical fiber sensing device 20 includes a receiving unit 21 and an abnormality determining unit 22.
[0017]
The optical fiber 10 is laid at or near the object to be monitored, and one end thereof is connected to the optical fiber sensing device 20. For example, if the object to be monitored is a road, the optical fiber 10 is placed in the ground below the road. If the object to be monitored is a bridge, the optical fiber 10 is arranged along the bridge. However, the objects to be monitored are not limited to roads and bridges, and may be objects that may cause construction work.
[0018]
The receiving unit 21 incidents pulsed light on the optical fiber 10. Further, the receiving unit 21 receives the reflected light or scattered light generated when the pulsed light is transmitted through the optical fiber 10 as return light (optical signal) via the optical fiber 10.
[0019]
When vibration is generated around the optical fiber 10, the vibration is superimposed on the return light transmitted by the optical fiber 10. Therefore, the optical fiber 10 can detect the vibration generated around the optical fiber 10.
[0020]
Therefore, when vibration is generated around the optical fiber 10, the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration and superimposes it on the return light for transmission, and the receiving unit 21 superimposes the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 on the return light. You will receive light.
[0021]
Here, the return light on which the vibration is superimposed has a unique vibration pattern in which the strength of the vibration, the vibration position, the transition of the fluctuation of the frequency, etc. are different. Therefore, by analyzing the dynamic change of the vibration pattern of the return light, it is possible to determine whether or not the vibration pattern is known.
[0022]
Therefore, the abnormality determination unit 22 detects the vibration pattern of the return light from the return light received by the reception unit 21 from the optical fiber 10, and determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is known. ..
[0023]
For example, the abnormality determination unit 22 may use pattern matching to determine whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is known. In this case, a known vibration pattern is stored in advance in a storage unit (not shown). The abnormality determination unit 22 compares the vibration pattern of the return light with the vibration pattern stored in a storage unit (not shown). When the vibration pattern of the return light includes a vibration pattern other than the vibration pattern stored in the storage unit (not shown), the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the vibration pattern of the return light is not known.
[0024]
Then, when the vibration pattern of the return light is not known, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred.
[0025]
For example, the vibration pattern of environmental vibration (for example, vibration generated by the passage of a car or train) is known. Therefore, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, the abnormality determination unit 22 does not determine that an abnormality has occurred. As a result, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, it is possible to prevent erroneous detection that construction has occurred.
[0026]
Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 2, an operation example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the first embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 2, the optical fiber 10 detects vibration (step S11). The vibration detected in the optical fiber 10 is superimposed on the return light transmitted through the optical fiber 10.
Subsequently, the receiving unit 21 receives from the optical fiber 10 the return light on which the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 is superimposed (step S12).
[0027]
Subsequently, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light received by the reception unit 21 is known (step S13). This determination may be made, for example, by using pattern matching as described above.
[0028]
If the vibration pattern of the return light is known (Yes in step S13), the process ends.
On the other hand, when the vibration pattern of the return light is not known (No in step S13), the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred (step S14).
[0029]
As described above, according to the first embodiment, the receiving unit 21 receives the return light on which the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 is superimposed from the optical fiber 10. If the vibration pattern of the return light is not known, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred.
[0030]
For example, the vibration pattern of vibration generated in response to environmental vibration is known. Therefore, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, the abnormality determination unit 22 does not determine that an abnormality has occurred. As a result, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, it is possible to prevent erroneous detection that an abnormality such as construction has occurred.
[0031]

Subsequently, a configuration example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the second embodiment and the third and fourth embodiments described later, the object to be monitored is the road R. This is an example. The road R also includes a road in a tunnel and the like.
[0032]
As shown in FIG. 3, in the optical fiber sensing system according to the second embodiment, the optical fiber 10 is arranged on the road R as compared with the configuration of FIG. 1 of the first embodiment described above. The difference is that the specific unit 23 and the storage unit 24 are added to the optical fiber sensing device 20.
[0033]
The optical fiber 10 is arranged along the road R in the underground G under the road R. Specifically, the optical fiber 10 is passed through the inside of the pipe P for the transmission line EL provided in the underground G. However, it is not limited to this. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the optical fiber 10 may be passed through the inside of a pipe P2 different from the pipe P1 for the transmission line EL. Further, the optical fiber 10 may be overhead-wired along the road R in order to detect the vibration generated in the construction work for an imaginary power transmission line (not shown).
[0034]
The specifying unit 23 specifies the time when the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration superimposed on the return light based on the return light received from the optical fiber 10 by the receiving unit 21. For example, the specifying unit 23 specifies the time when the optical fiber 10 detects vibration based on the time when the receiving unit 21 receives the return light from the optical fiber 10.
[0035]
Further, the specific unit 23 is a position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration superimposed on the return light based on the return light received from the optical fiber 10 by the receiving unit 21 (distance of the optical fiber 10 from the receiving unit 21). To identify. For example, the specific unit 23 is based on the time difference between the time when the receiving unit 21 incidents the pulsed light on the optical fiber 10 and the time when the receiving unit 21 receives the return light on which the vibration is superimposed from the optical fiber 10. The position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration (distance of the optical fiber 10 from the receiving unit 21) is specified.
[0036]
The storage unit 24 stores a known vibration pattern in advance. For example, the storage unit 24 stores in advance the vibration pattern of the vibration generated when the construction is performed with the combination of the construction machine types for each combination of the construction machine types. FIG. 5 shows an example of a list of vibration patterns stored by the storage unit 24. The information shown in FIG. 5 is schematically represented, and is assumed to be in an information format (data format) that can be discriminated in the optical fiber sensing device 20.
[0037]
In addition, the storage unit 24 stores in advance the information of the event that has been notified to the municipality in advance. Here, the event is described as being construction work, but is not limited to this. FIG. 6 shows an example of the notified construction information stored by the storage unit 24. The information shown in FIG. 6 is schematically represented, and is assumed to be in an information format (data format) that can be discriminated in the optical fiber sensing device 20.
[0038]
In the second embodiment, first, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light received from the optical fiber 10 by the reception unit 21 is an abnormal vibration pattern. This determination method will be described later.
[0039]
When the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern, the abnormality determination unit 22 subsequently determines whether or not the abnormal vibration pattern is known. At this time, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is known by referring to the known vibration pattern stored in the storage unit 24. Specifically, the abnormality determination unit 22 compares the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern with the vibration pattern stored in the storage unit 24. When the abnormal vibration pattern includes a vibration pattern other than the vibration pattern stored in the storage unit 24, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the abnormal vibration pattern is not known.
[0040]
When the above abnormal vibration pattern is not known, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration.
[0041]
Further, when the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is known, the abnormality determination unit 22 subsequently generates the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern in response to an event (here, construction) notified in advance. Judge whether or not. At this time, the abnormality determination unit 22 refers to the construction information stored in the storage unit 24 and the known vibration pattern, and the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is generated according to the notified construction. Determine if it exists. Specifically, first, the abnormality determination unit 22 extracts information on the work being performed at the time when the optical fiber 10 detects vibration from the information on the work stored in the storage unit 24. When the information of the corresponding construction can be extracted, the abnormality determination unit 22 subsequently refers to the construction machine type used in the construction extracted above, and from the vibration patterns stored in the storage unit 24, the above Extract the vibration pattern of the vibration generated when performing the construction extracted in. When the abnormal vibration pattern includes the vibration pattern extracted above, the abnormality determination unit 22 states that the abnormal vibration pattern is generated in response to the work notified in advance. to decide.
[0042]
If the above abnormal vibration pattern does not occur in response to the work notified in advance, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration. do.
[0043]
Here, an example of a method for determining whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern will be described in the abnormality determination unit 22.
[0044]
(A1) Method A1
First, method A1 will be described.
FIG. 7 shows a vibration pattern of vibration detected at a certain position on the optical fiber 10, where the horizontal axis shows time and the vertical axis shows vibration intensity.
In the example of FIG. 7, first, artificial vibration is generated, and then steady state vibration (natural vibration) is generated.
[0045]
The abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the vibration pattern of natural vibration is not an abnormal vibration pattern.
On the other hand, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the artificial vibration is an abnormal vibration pattern as follows.
[0046]
8 and 9 schematically show a vibration pattern after FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) an artificial vibration pattern as shown in FIG. 7, where the horizontal axis is frequency and the vertical axis is vibration. Shows strength.
[0047]
In the vibration patterns shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, a frequency peak of vibration intensity occurs. The frequency at which this frequency peak occurs differs between normal vibration such as environmental vibration (for example, vibration generated by passing a car or train) and abnormal vibration generated by a construction machine or the like. Specifically, in the vibration pattern of abnormal vibration generated by a construction machine or the like, the frequency at which the frequency peak occurs shifts to the higher frequency side than the vibration pattern of normal vibration.
[0048]
Therefore, in the method A1, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern based on the frequency at which the frequency peak occurs in the vibration pattern of the return light. ..
[0049]
(A2) Method A2
Next, method A2 will be described.
FIG. 10 shows the vibration pattern of artificial vibration detected at a certain position on the optical fiber 10, where the horizontal axis shows time and the vertical axis shows vibration intensity.
The abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern, as described below.
11 and 12 schematically show a vibration pattern of artificial vibration as shown in FIG. 10, and the horizontal axis and the vertical axis of FIGS. 11 and 12 are the same as those in FIG.
[0050]
In the vibration patterns shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, vibrations are repeatedly generated. The interval at which this vibration occurs differs between normal vibration such as environmental vibration and abnormal vibration generated by construction machinery. Specifically, in the vibration pattern of normal vibration, there are variations in the intervals at which vibrations occur, and vibrations occur irregularly. On the other hand, in the vibration pattern of abnormal vibration generated by a construction machine or the like, the interval at which the vibration is generated is constant, and the vibration is periodically generated.
[0051]
Therefore, in the method A2, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern based on the interval at which the vibration occurs in the vibration pattern of the return light.
[0052]
Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 13, an operation example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the second embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 13, the optical fiber 10 detects vibration (step S21). The vibration detected in the optical fiber 10 is superimposed on the return light transmitted through the optical fiber 10.
Subsequently, the receiving unit 21 receives from the optical fiber 10 the return light on which the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 is superimposed (step S22).
Subsequently, the specifying unit 23 specifies the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration based on the return light received by the receiving unit 21 (step S23).
[0053]
Subsequently, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light received by the reception unit 21 is an abnormal vibration pattern (step S24). This determination may be made, for example, by using either method A1 or A2 described above. When the vibration pattern of the return light is not an abnormal vibration pattern (No in step S24), the process ends.
[0054]
On the other hand, when the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern (Yes in step S24), the abnormality determination unit 22 subsequently determines whether or not the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is known. (Step S25). This determination may be made, for example, with reference to a known vibration pattern stored in the storage unit 24, as described above. When the abnormal vibration pattern is not known (No in step S25), the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration (step S27).
[0055]
On the other hand, when the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is known (Yes in step S25), the abnormality determination unit 22 subsequently reports that the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is an event (here, construction). It is determined whether or not the event has occurred according to (step S26). This determination may be made, for example, with reference to the information of the event (for example, construction) stored in the storage unit 24 and the known vibration pattern as described above. When the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern is generated in response to the work notified in advance (Yes in step S26), the process is terminated.
[0056]
On the other hand, when the above-mentioned abnormal vibration pattern does not occur in response to the work notified in advance (No in step S26), the abnormality determination unit 22 is at the position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration. It is determined that an abnormality has occurred (step S27).
[0057]
Note that the operation example shown in FIG. 13 is an example, and the operation example is not limited to this. The operation example shown in FIG. 13 may be transformed into another operation example as shown in FIG. 14, for example. Hereinafter, another operation example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the second embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
[0058]
As shown in FIG. 14, first, steps S31 to S33 similar to steps S21 to S23 in FIG. 13 are performed.
Subsequently, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light received by the reception unit 21 is generated in response to an event (here, construction) that has been notified in advance. (Step S34). This determination may be made, for example, with reference to the information of the event (for example, construction) stored in the storage unit 24 and the known vibration pattern as described above. When the vibration pattern of the return light is generated in response to the work notified in advance (Yes in step S34), the process is terminated.
[0059]
On the other hand, when the vibration pattern of the return light does not occur according to the construction that was notified in advance (N in step S34).o) Subsequently, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines whether or not the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern (step S35). This determination may be made, for example, by using either method A1 or A2 described above. When the vibration pattern of the return light is not an abnormal vibration pattern (No in step S35), the process ends.
[0060]
On the other hand, when the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern (Yes in step S35), the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration (Yes). Step S36).
[0061]
As described above, according to the second embodiment, the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that the abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration in the following cases.
(1) When the vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern and the abnormal vibration pattern is not known.
(2) The vibration pattern of the return light is an abnormal vibration pattern, the abnormal vibration pattern is known, and the abnormal vibration pattern occurs in response to an event notified in advance. If not
(3) When the vibration pattern of the return light does not occur in response to an event notified in advance, and the vibration pattern is an abnormal vibration pattern.
[0062]
Therefore, in the case of (1) above, it is possible to detect that an unconfirmed abnormality (for example, unconfirmed construction work) has occurred. Further, in the cases of (2) and (3) above, it is possible to detect that an unreported abnormality (for example, unreported unauthorized construction) has occurred.
[0063]
Also, for example, the vibration pattern of vibration generated in response to environmental vibration is not an abnormal vibration pattern. Therefore, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, the abnormality determination unit 22 does not determine that an abnormality has occurred. As a result, even if environmental vibration occurs in the surroundings, it is possible to prevent erroneous detection that an abnormality such as construction has occurred.
[0064]

Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 15, a configuration example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the third embodiment will be described.
[0065]
As shown in FIG. 15, the optical fiber sensing system according to the third embodiment has an additional display unit 30 and an optical fiber as compared with the configuration of FIG. 3 of the second embodiment described above. The difference is that the notification unit 25 is added to the sensing device 20.
[0066]
When the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred, the notification unit 25 notifies an alert. The notification destination may be, for example, a monitoring system for monitoring the monitored object, a monitoring terminal in a monitoring room for monitoring the monitored object, or a user terminal. Further, the notification method may be, for example, a method of displaying a GUI (Graphical User Interface) screen on the display unit 30 which is a display or monitor of the notification destination. Further, the notification method may be a method of outputting a message by voice from a speaker (not shown) of the notification destination.
[0067]
Further, the storage unit 24 may store the information indicating the position where the optical fiber 10 is laid and the map information in association with each other. Further, when the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred, the notification unit 25 may map and display the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration on the map displayed by the display unit 30. good. FIG. 16 shows an example of a GUI screen that maps and displays the position where the optical fiber 10 detects vibration on a map. In the example of FIG. 16, the position where the optical fiber 10 is laid is mapped and displayed on the map, and the position X where the optical fiber 10 detects the vibration (that is, the position where the abnormality occurs) X is mapped and displayed. is doing. The map shown in FIG. 16 can be enlarged or reduced as needed.
[0068]
Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 17, an operation example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the third embodiment will be described.
As shown in FIG. 17, first, steps S41 to S47 similar to steps S21 to S27 in FIG. 13 are performed.
[0069]
In step S47, when the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration superimposed on the return light, the notification unit 25 alerts that the abnormality has occurred. (Step S48).
[0070]
At this time, for example, the notification unit 25 indicates that an unconfirmed abnormality has occurred in the case where step S45 is No and the process proceeds to step S47 (that is, the vibration pattern of the return light is abnormal and unknown). You may send an alert. Further, in the case where step S46 is No and the process proceeds to step S47 (that is, the vibration pattern of the return light is abnormal and known, but there is no prior notification), the notification unit 25 has an unreported abnormality. An alert to the effect that it has occurred may be notified.
[0071]
Further, the notification unit 25 may perform notification even when the abnormality determination unit 22 does not determine that an abnormality has occurred. For example, in the case where the process is completed in step S44 (that is, the case where the vibration pattern of the return light is not abnormal), it may be notified that the normal state is reached. Further, in the case where the process is completed in Yes in step S46 (that is, the case where the vibration pattern of the return light is abnormal and known and there is a prior notification), even if the notification that the notified event has occurred has occurred. good.
[0072]
Note that the operation example shown in FIG. 17 is an example, and the operation example is not limited to this. The operation example shown in FIG. 17 may be modified, for example, by adding step S48 shown in FIG. 17 to the operation example as shown in FIG.
[0073]
As described above, according to the third embodiment, when the abnormality determination unit 22 determines that an abnormality has occurred at the position where the optical fiber 10 has detected the vibration, the notification unit 25 notifies the alert. .. This makes it possible to notify that an abnormality has occurred. Other effects are the same as those in the second embodiment described above.
[0074]

Subsequently, with reference to FIG. 18, a configuration example of the optical fiber sensing system according to the fourth embodiment will be described.
[0075]
As shown in FIG. 18, in the optical fiber sensing system according to the fourth embodiment, the deterioration determination unit 26 is added to the optical fiber sensing device 20 as compared with the configuration of FIG. 15 of the third embodiment described above. The point that is done is different.
[0076]
As described above, the receiving unit 21 receives the return light on which the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 is superimposed. The return light on which the vibration is superimposed has a unique vibration pattern in which the strength of the vibration, the vibration position, the transition of the fluctuation of the frequency, and the like are different. This vibration pattern becomes a different pattern depending on the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10. Therefore, it is possible to determine the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 by analyzing the dynamic change of the vibration pattern of the return light.
[0077]
Therefore, the deterioration determination unit 26 detects the vibration pattern of the return light from the return light received by the reception unit 21 from the optical fiber 10, and determines the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 based on the vibration pattern of the return light. do.
[0078]
Here, an example of a method for determining the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 in the deterioration determination unit 26 will be described.
[0079]
(B1) Method B1
First, method B1 will be described.
19 and 20 schematically show the vibration pattern of the artificial vibration detected at a certain position on the optical fiber 10, where the horizontal axis shows time and the vertical axis shows vibration intensity.
[0080] [0080]
In the vibration patterns shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, when vibration occurs, the vibration is subsequently attenuated. This attenuation time varies depending on the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10. Specifically, in the normal state of the optical fiber 10, the attenuation time is short, but as the deterioration of the optical fiber 10 progresses, the attenuation time becomes longer.
[0081]
Therefore, in the method B1, the deterioration determination unit 26 determines the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 based on the length of the attenuation time in the vibration pattern of the return light.
[0082]
(B2) Method B2
Next, method B2 will be described.
In method B2, the vibration pattern corresponding to the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 is machine-learned (for example, deep learning), and the learning result of the machine learning (initial learning model) is used to determine the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10. ..
[0083]
Here, the machine learning method in the method B2 will be described with reference to FIG. 21.
As shown in FIG. 21, the deterioration determination unit 26 inputs the teacher data indicating the degree of deterioration of the optical fiber 10 and the vibration pattern of the return light received from the optical fiber 10 having the degree of deterioration (step S51). , S52). FIG. 22 shows an example of teacher data. FIG. 22 is an example of teacher data in the case of learning the three vibration patterns A, B, and C. In addition, in FIG. 22, the degree of deterioration indicates that the larger the numerical value is, the more the deterioration is progressing.
[0084]
Subsequently, the deterioration determination unit 26 matches and classifies the two (step S53), and performs supervised learning (step S54). As a result, an initial learning model is obtained (step S55). This initial learning model is a model in which the degree of deterioration of the optical fiber 10 is output when the vibration pattern of the return light received from the optical fiber 10 is input.
[0085]
When the deterioration determination unit 26 determines the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10, the receiving unit 21 detects the vibration pattern of the return light from the return light received from the optical fiber 10, and initially determines the vibration pattern of the return light. Enter in the training model. As a result, the deterioration determination unit 26 obtains the degree of deterioration of the optical fiber 10 as the output result of the initial learning model.
[0086]
Note that the notification unit 25 may notify the alert when the deterioration degree of the optical fiber 10 is equal to or higher than the threshold value as a result of the deterioration determination unit 26 determining the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10. In this case, the notification destination and the notification method may be the same as those in the above-described third embodiment.

[0088]
As shown in FIG. 23, the optical fiber 10 detects vibration (step S61). The vibration detected in the optical fiber 10 is superimposed on the return light transmitted through the optical fiber 10.
Subsequently, the receiving unit 21 receives from the optical fiber 10 the return light on which the vibration detected by the optical fiber 10 is superimposed (step S62).
[0089]
After that, the deterioration determination unit 26 determines the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 based on the vibration pattern of the return light received by the reception unit 21 (step S63). This determination may be made, for example, using either method B1 or B2 described above.
[0090]
In the fourth embodiment, it is preferable that the vibration used for determining the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10 is a predetermined vibration in which the generation position, the vibration intensity and the like are predetermined.

As a result, it is possible not only to determine whether or not an abnormality has occurred, but also to determine the deterioration state of the optical fiber 10. Other effects are the same as those in the second embodiment described above.
