Abstract:A deployed fiber with in-house and underground sections is interrogated with a coherent correlation OTDR. The origin and propagation speed of a hammer-generated pressure wave in the underground section is detected and acoustic signals are monitored.
Abstract:Distributed fiber sensing based on correlation-aided phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry is presented. The focus is on correlation as an enabler for high spatial resolution. Results from different applications are presented.
Abstract:Superimposed temperature variations and dynamic strain applied through a 400 Hz acoustic signal on a 195 m single-mode fiber section are successfully measured using a coherent correlation optical time domain reflectometry as an interrogator.
