A Novel Approach to Ice Detection on Power Lines Using Distributed Strain and Temperature Sensing (DSTS) with Field Test Validation
Icing on power transmission lines is a critical challenge for utility companies, causing severe structural damage to conductors and towers. While detection is manageable near substations, it is nearly impossible in rugged, inaccessible terrain, often leading to unexpected system failures.
