Systems and methods for utilizing machine learning to minimize a potential of damage to fiber optic cables

A device, comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• determine, based on baseline sensing data associated with a fiber optic cable, a baseline sensing profile that indicates a measure of vibration as a function of distance along the fiber optic cable and as a function of time;
• provide, to a sensor device, a request for sensing data associated with the fiber optic cable,
• wherein the request includes a schedule according to which the sensor device is to transmit the sensing data;
• receive, from the sensor device and based on the schedule, the sensing data,
• wherein the sensing data is produced by an activity that poses a threat of damage to the fiber optic cable;
• and
• determine, based on the sensing data, that the sensing data satisfies a vibration deviation criteria relative to the baseline sensing profile;
• process, with a machine learning model and based on the sensing data satisfying the vibration deviation criteria, the sensing data to determine a threat level of the activity to the fiber optic cable;
• and
• perform, based on the threat level, one or more actions to minimize a potential of damage to the fiber optic cable.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• provide, to a fiber sensor device, a request for sensing data associated with a fiber optic cable,
• the request including a schedule according to which the fiber sensor device is to transmit the sensing data;
• receive, from the fiber sensor device and based on the schedule, the sensing data,
• the sensing data being produced by an activity involving ground-penetration;
• process, with a machine learning model, the sensing data to determine a threat level of the activity to the fiber optic cable;
• and
• perform one or more actions based on the threat level to the fiber optic cable.
