We propose and experimental demonstrate a Dynamic Threshold Identification Method (DTIM) based on the Raman distributed fiber sensor (RDFS) system for detecting the pipeline leak. The DTIM can detect the position of pipeline leak according to distributed temperature measured by the RDFS. The DTIM includes three steps, which are the space segmentation detection, 3 criterion and identification of historical data. The experimental results show that the proposed RDFS can detect and accurately locate the leak position by using the DTIM, and the positioning accuracy is 1 m. In addition, the temperature change rate of the leak position performs a quadratic function relationship with the leak rate, and the leak rate can be estimated by this method. It provides an effective distributed monitoring method for the leak monitoring of pipeline.
