16. A method of sensing strain comprising:
-
deploying a cable having at least one at least one sensing bundle contained within a cladding, each sensing bundle having a sensing fiber wrapped strain-transmissively by at least one strand, each of the sensing bundles being wrapped circumferentially about a central wire; and transmitting strain to the fiber via the at least one strand. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
