The proposed system detects environmental characteristics along the length of the optical fiber and determines liquid levels in real-time using a Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. Sensors are devices or instruments that convert a measured physical quantity (such as velocity, temperature, sound, or light) into another physical quantity convenient for transmission and processing, typically an electrical signal. These devices are often referred to as probes or detectors. 2–17 Liquid level sensors can be classified into two main cat-egories: continuous evel sensors and discrete level sensors. Several continu us level sensors. Honeywell Sensing and Control (S&C) offers fiber optic sensors manufactured with SERCOS (Serial Real-time Communication System) transmitters and receivers, duplexers, even liquid level sensors. Based on Rayleigh backscattering coherent optical frequency.
