Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Dynamics
Driver:Surging demand for infrastructure vertical act as major driver for the market
The use of distributed fiber optic sensors in the infrastructure vertical has been continuously increasing primarily for structural health monitoring.
The primary objective behind the growing penetration of distributed sensors in this vertical is to have a better understanding of the structural condition and economically efficient management of the infrastructure. Geotechnical structures, pipelines, bridges, and dams are the major areas where the penetration of structural health monitoring in the civil engineering industry is rising.
The major advantage of next-generation sensors is the ability to measure strain, temperature, or pressure over numerous locations simultaneously. Along with it, the ability to deploy distributed sensors in any kind of challenging environment and the real-time tracking of structural malfunctions are the key reasons for the increased use of distributed sensing in the civil engineering industry.
Restraint: Technical issues in installation of distributed fiber optic sensors
The technical issues related to the installation of distributed sensors act as a major hindrance to the growth of the distributed fiber optic sensor market.
The optical fiber must be carefully handled to avoid its breakage while installing. Even though the design of the sensor cables has improved tremendously, improper cable deployment can fail to obtain accurate data. As the process of installation and operation of the fiber involves high-cost inputs, such failures can result in customers’ indifference to the technology in future projects.
There is always a risk involved in the deployment of the cable, and, hence, any kind of carelessness in the deployment or installation of the optical fiber can affect the readings recorded by the sensor and lead to improper functioning, which, in turn, would restrain the growth rate of the market.
Opportunity: Growing demand for data analysis to act as huge opportunity for the market
Distributed fiber optic sensors collect data along the length of the optical fiber. This provides an immense volume of data as a result of which various analytical tools are used to analyze the collected data. Globally, there is an increasing demand for the implementation of data-driven decision-making and strategies.
These are done by finding a pattern out of the data, which the managers can measure, and the insights are deciphered, resulting in better decision making and performance. Distributed fiber optic sensors collect data on the changes in temperature, strain, vibration, or pressure at any point along the length of the fiber through light scattering.
The data is then processed using a set of algorithms where the software can organize large amounts of data into a visualization platform that helps data engineers with decision making. With data-intensive decisions slowly becoming the mainstay of several industries, the distributed fiber optic sensor market is also expected to grow during the forecast period.
Challenge: High cost of distributed fiber optic sensor systems
Distributed sensor systems enable companies to monitor difficult work environments and gain real-time data with high accuracy. The market is growing because of the various advantages offered by these distributed sensors such as their accuracy and reliability.
However, the cost of the technology is still relatively high. Depending upon the applications, the type of cable used, and operating conditions, the cost of a distributed fiber optic sensor system can be very high, which is still not affordable by every company requiring real-time monitoring and sensing. Additionally, the installation and maintenance of these systems are also expensive, which makes their implementation difficult. Thus, the high cost of distributed fiber optic sensor systems poses a major challenge for the growth of this market.
Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Segment Overview
Multimode fiber is expected to contributethelargest market share during the forecast period
The market for multimode fibers is expected to contribute to the largest market during the forecast period. This is due to the use of multimode fiber-based sensors in the oil & gas vertical, which requires greater accuracy with fast and reliable transmission.
A few other advantages of multimode fiber systems include the capability of operating with substantial optical power over moderate distances inexpensively; utilizing the multiplicity of propagation modes within the fiber for sensing purposes; providing a means of sensing spectral signature changes over considerable wavelength ranges; and relatively large dimensions so improving tolerances with respect to end effects and interconnectionsare a few of the major driving factors for the growth of the market of multimode fiber-based sensors.
Safety and security is expected to grow with second highest CAGR in vertical segment during the forecast period
Distributed fiber optic sensors for the security vertical are primarily used for safety purposes, intrusion detection, and border monitoring. Intrusion detection works on three parameters-the probability of detection, nuisance alarm rate, and false alarm rate.
The probability of detection is considered to be the most important parameter based on which the distributed sensor notes the best possible reading. For border monitoring applications, the protection of critical infrastructures at borders is the major application area for distributed sensing in the safety and security vertical.This has led to a significant contribution to the market of distributed fiber optic sensors for safety and security industry.
US to grow with highest CAGR in North American region during the forecast period
The US has experienced an increase in the production of oil and related products in the last decade, which, in turn, has made the country an important market for distributed fiber optic sensors.
The development and expansion of existing pipelines and the construction of new ones are fueling the growth of the distributed fiber optic sensor market for the oil & gas vertical in the US. The US has access to significant natural gas resources.Similarly, rising industrial automation, technological innovations in the building and construction vertical, and the US being the second-largest electricity producing country are the factors working in the favor of the distributed fiber optic sensor market.

The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the global distributed fiber optic sensor market. Exhaustive secondary research has been done to collect information about the market, the peer market, and the parent market. Validating findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research has been the next step. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches have been employed to estimate the complete market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation methods have been used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
The secondary sources referred to for this research study include company websites, magazines, industry news, associations, and databases (OneSource, Factiva, and Bloomberg), Energy Information Administration (EIA), British Petroleum, European Environment Agency (EEA), The American Society Of Mechanical Engineers (U.S.), Control System Integrators Association (U.S.) and corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements). Secondary data has been collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall market size, further validated by primary research.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research has been conducted after acquiring an understanding of the distributed fiber optic sensor market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with market experts from both the demand-and supply-side players across major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and the Rest of the World (the Africa, South America and Central America). Approximately 30% and 70% of primary interviews have been conducted from the demand and supply side, respectively. Primary data has been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. In the canvassing of primaries, various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and administration, were covered to provide a holistic viewpoint in our report.
After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions were conducted with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primaries. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report.

Growth opportunities and latent adjacency in Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market
I am a new teacher focus on distributed fiber optic sensor, I want to know the right direction to study on. Can you provide me the future trends and scope of the report?
Hi, This report looks very interesting but very expensive. Can you please send exec summary as well as level of projects description, methodology etc., so we can asses to provide good information.
Is there any reason why HiFi was not includes in the company list? We are deploying a significant amount of our high fidelity fiber optic sensing technology both downhole and on pipelines. The company is partly owned by Cenovus and Enbridge. We can also share performance testing to illustrate a significant improvement from the low fidelity / conventional DAS and DTS players referenced. We'd be happy to speak to an analyst/author at your convenience.
