A Nearable Soft Mat Based on Distributed Optical Fiber Sensing for Physiological Monitoring
Distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) combines the advantages of fiber optic sensors, including flexibility, small size, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and high metrological performance, with the capability to transform a single optical fiber into a continuous sensing element for spatially resolved mechanical measurements. Optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR), based on Rayleigh backscattering, enables high spatial resolution DOFS measurements, broadening the range of potential sensing applications. However, OFDR based DOFS remains largely unexplored for biomedical applications, despite the need for sensitive, spatially resolved, and conformable sensing interfaces. T...
