To improve the safety and efficiency performance of partial discharge detection in a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable system, an optical fiber ultrasonic detection system for partial discharge is carried o.
[pdf] A new study by researchers from Palo Alto Research Center (PARC, a Xerox Company) and LG Chem Power presents a novel method for real-time battery monitoring using embedded fiber-optic sensors. Fiber optic (FO) sensors exhibit several key advantages over traditional electrical counterparts, which make them promising candidates to be integrated in BMS for measuring critical cell state-parameters. First, silica-based fiber optic cables are inherently immune to EMI and radio frequency. Applications of fiber optic sensors to battery monitoring have been increasing due to the growing need of enhanced battery management systems with accurate state estimations.
