Observation of Rayleigh scattering by simplified optical correlation-domain reflectometry without frequency shifter

چکیده
We present a method for measuring the transmission loss of an optical fiber using simplified correlation-domain reflectometry. By intentionally lowering spatial resolution system, we observe Rayleigh scattered signal first time without need frequency shifter. Using this method, simultaneously measure loss, location, and faulty connections along 10-km-long under test by performing distributed reflected-power measurements scattering Fresnel reflection.

Summary: We present a new optical frequency domain reflectometry technique which permits high frequency sweep repetition rates without sacrificing range. This technique could thus be adapted for remote and distributed acoustic sensing over long
متن کاملDistributed Rayleigh scatter dynamic strain sensing above the scan rate with optical frequency domain reflectometry
Luna recently demonstrated a novel optical phase-based algorithm for removing the adverse effects of fiber motion at frequencies far above the scan rate on high-resolution measurements of Rayleigh scatter using Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR) for static strain and temperature measurements. By comparing dynamic OFDR Rayleigh scatter measurements to a static reference, it is possibl...
متن کاملProposal of Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (BOCDR).
We propose a Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (BOCDR), which can measure the distribution of strain and/or temperature along an optical fiber from a single end, by detecting spontaneous Brillouin scattering with controlling the interference of continuous lightwaves. In a pulse-based conventional Brillouin optical time-domain reflectometry (BOTDR), it is difficult in principle ...
متن کاملCapabilities and Limitations of Coherent Optical Frequency–domain Reflectometry
Optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR), originally developed by Barnoski and Jensen in 1976 [1], is now a well-established tool for non-destructive characterization of optical networks and components. In general an ideal reflectometry system would have a spatial resolution high enough to locate closely separated sites of reflection within the network under test. In addition the sensitivity wo...
متن کاملOptical fiber ring resonator characterization by optical time-domain reflectometry.
A novel method for characterization of optical fiber resonators by an optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR) technique is reported. This easy-to-use technique yields accurate results for cavity lengths ranging from a few meters to several kilometers. A simple relationship is established between the round-trip cavity loss and the position where the OTDR signal is maximum. The value obtained fo...
