Application of fiber optics in water distribution networks for leak detection and localization: a mixed methodology-based review

This study reviews the state-of-the-art application of fiber optics in water distribution networks for leak detection and localization. The use of fiber optics in the oil and gas sector has been well established; however, its potential in water pipelines is not evident owing to limited research. Thi...
