Ιmportant optical component for fiber lasers are the fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) instead of conventional dielectric mirrors. In collaboration with Cyprus University of Technology / Τεχνολογικό Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, @Mirage Photonics and the Ústav fotoniky a elektroniky AV ČR, v.v.i. under the project LUMiOS, we target the FBG development in fluoride fibers for monolithic midIR fiber lasers and future gas sensing applications.![]()

On December 2, 2021, members of the LightSense Project visited the offices of the Transmission System Operator – Cyprus (TSOC). During the visit, TSOC engineers presented to our members the SCADA system; a powerful control system that is designed to collect, analyze, and visualize data from the power equipment of the transmission network. In case of a failure, the TSOC coordinates the processes for the restoration of the generation and transmission system, making it an efficient, secure and reliable system. All the above are performed to ensure an uninterrupted supply of electricity to the consumers.![]()

Pilot deployment of the sensor systems at EAC Head offices
On October 2021, LightSense project members had successfully installed the sensor systems at EAC Head offices in Nicosia.![]()
LightSense project utilizes the EAC’s existing single-mode optical fibers installed in parallel with the underground power cables as the distributed sensor. The starting point of the optical path is the EAC Head Office in Nicosia (Dhasoupolis transmission substation 11 kV) and the end point is the “Langadas” distribution substation (11 kV). The underground cables have a total distance of about 1.6 km, with multiple power cable joints. The increased number of joints leads to an increased possibility of failure in the power network.![]()
The sensor systems (from FEBUS Optics and Silixa Ltd) monitor the temperature and strain of the optical cables for providing useful information and also for identifying abnormal behaviours on the cables and thus in general possible network failures in the power network.![]()
