| contents | Distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS), along with its capabilities of long-range coverage, multi-parameter monitoring, and completely passive detection, emerges as one of the most promising non-destructive detection techniques for structural health monitoring (SHM) and operational assessment of linear transportation infrastructures. In this paper, we provide a state-of-the-art review on DOFS applications across typical linear infrastructure systems, encompassing highways, long-span bridges, rail transit networks, airport runways, and analogous linear structures. The comprehensive discussion consists of four critical research dimensions: 1) optical fiber selection for multi-parameter sensing and robust cable packaging techniques, 2) distributed sensing principles and signal processing algorithms, 3) diverse application scenarios in SHM and related fields, and 4) anomaly detection and event classification methodologies. Building upon the foundational introduction of DOFS technical principles and monitoring solutions for intelligent transportation infrastructure, this paper elaborates on system design approaches, sensing data analytics algorithms, and future research directions. |
