This list was initially developed as part of AfTerFibre, a project to map terrestrial fibre optic cable projects in Africa. The project was sponsored by Google Africa and, on completion, will be hosted by the UbuntuNet Alliance. All information gathered by the project will be publicly available under an open license.

This Special Issue focuses on the innovative design of optical fiber sensor structures, including fiber Bragg gratings, long-period gratings, interferometric sensors, and advanced micro-structured fibers. Optical fiber sensors are devices that use optical fibers to detect and measure various parameters such as temperature, pressure, strain, and refractive index. The apparatus includes a heating source (110) and a robotic articulate arm (130) that may modify the geometry of an optical fiber (150). Nowadays fiber optic refractive index sensors are widely used in various fields such as chemical, biochemical, and in an industry field. The optical fibre can be used as a distributed sensor by exploiting light scattering effects or as a quasi-distributed sensor network by functionalizing the fibre through Bragg gratings photo-inscription for instance.

This work proposes a novel method of embedding FOSs using capillaries within solid structures and investigates fiber positions and orientation uncertainties within capillaries of different sizes and their influences on strain measurement accuracies. Embedding fiber optic sensors (FOSs) within parts for strain measurement is attracting widespread interest due to its great potential in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). Therefore, the purpose of this effort is to bridge the gap between civil engineering and sensor engineering communities through an overview on the up-to-date technological advances in both sectors, with a special focus on textile reinforced concrete embedded with fiber optic sensors.

A high-performance, low-cost demodulation system is essential for fiber-optic sensor-based measurement applications. This interrogator is compatible with all specifications and models of OFSCN® FBG sensors (including Temperature, Stress, and Strain FBG sensors). It features adjustable port density (4, 8, 16, and 32 channels), high refresh rates (10, 20, 50, and 100 Hz). A high speed, high performance, portable, dual-channel, optical Fiber Bragg Grating demodulator based on fiber Fabry- Pérot tunable filter (FFP-FT) is reported in this paper.
