Abstract

The present invention provides a system (1) for monitoring a fibre-reinforced composite component (10) in production or in service. The system comprises: a composite component (10) having reinforcing fibres which are encompassed by a matrix material (M); at least one optical fibre (14) arranged to extend in a continuous path over a monitoring area (15) of the composite component (10) for contact with the matrix material (M); a signal generator (21) configured to transmit an optical signal along the at least one optical fibre (14); and a detector device (22) configured to detect scattering, and in particular backscattering, of the optical signal transmitted along the at least one optical fibre (14).
