METHODOLOGY AND APPROACH 3.1 TSF “Nervous System” Architecture: sensing physics, layout, and decision pathways The proposed architecture treats the TSF as a cyber‑physical system in which fibre optic cables provide continuous distributed measurements (the “nerves”), interrogators convert backscatter into physical observables (the “receptors”), and edge-processing analytics and governance workflows translate observables into decisions and disclosure (the “brain”), Figure 2. Figure 2 – Conceptual TSF “nervous system” architecture using DFOS integrated with governance workflows (AI generated). DFOS is implemented through three complementary scattering mechanisms:
