Subpeaks in the Brillouin loss spectra of distributed fiber-optic sensors

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Subpeaks in the Brillouin loss spectra of distributed fiber-optic sensors were observed for what is believed to be the first time and studied. We discovered that the Fourier spectrum of the pulsed signal and the off-resonance oscillation both contributed to subpeaks. The off-resonance oscillation at frequency ννB is the oscillation in the Brillouin time domain when beat frequency ν of the two counterpropagating laser beams does not match local Brillouin frequency νB. This study is important in differentiating the subpeaks from actual strain–temperature peaks.
