Abstract
The monitoring of mine pressure, division of vertical zoning of the overburden, discrimination of key stratum structure of the overburden and monitoring of advanced abutment pressure are still the main research problems in the field of coal mining. Therefore, the promotion of development of a monitoring technology of mining-induced rock mass deformation has important research value in the mining field. There are many problems to be solved in the application of optical fiber sensing (OFS) to deformation monitoring, such as the corresponding relationship between actual deformation and optical parameters, the coupling relationship between the optical fiber and rock mass and the reasonable division of vertical zoning of the overburden. In this study, a quantitative index of coupling action between the mining rock mass and optical fiber is put forward, and the coupling coefficient of different vertical zonings is quantitatively analyzed and discussed. Based on this, five different media in contact with optical fiber are proposed. The relationship between the strain curve form, the development height of the fracture zone and the activity of key stratum is established. It is of great academic value and research significance to establish a characterization system of displacement, deformation and structural evolution of overlying strata based on optical fiber sensing technology.
