Simultaneous Structural Monitoring over Optical Ground Wire and Optical Phase Conductor via Chirped-Pulse Phase-Sensitive Optical Time-Domain Reflectometry.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Optimizing the use of existing high-voltage transmission lines demands real-time condition monitoring to ensure structural integrity and continuous service. Operating these lines at the current capacity is limited by safety margins based on worst-case weather scenarios, as exceeding these margins risks bringing conductors dangerously close to the ground. The integration of optical fibers within modern transmission lines enables the use of Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) technology, with Chirped-Pulse Phase-Sensitive Optical Time-Domain Reflectometry (CP-ΦOTDR) proving especially effective for this purpose. CP-ΦOTDR measures wind-induced vibrations along the conductor, allowing for an analysis of frequency-domain vibration modes that correlate with conductor length and sag across spans. This monitoring system, capable of covering distances up to 40 km from a single endpoint, enables dynamic capacity adjustments for optimized line efficiency. Beyond sag monitoring, CP-ΦOTDR provides robust detection of external threats, including environmental interference and mechanical intrusions, which could compromise cable stability. By simultaneously monitoring the Optical Phase Conductor (OPPC) and Optical Ground Wire (OPGW), this study offers the first comprehensive, real-time evaluation of both structural integrity and potential external aggressions on overhead transmission lines. The findings demonstrate that high-frequency data offer valuable insights for classifying mechanical intrusions and environmental interferences based on spectral content, while low-frequency data reveal the diurnal temperature-induced sag evolution, with distinct amplitude responses for each cable. These results affirm CP-ΦOTDR's unique capacity to enhance line safety, operational efficiency, and proactive maintenance by delivering precise, real-time assessments of both structural integrity and external threats.
