Distributed dynamic large strain optical fiber sensor based on the detection of spontaneous Brillouin scattering

Distributed dynamic large strain optical fiber sensor based on the detection of spontaneous Brillouin scattering
Distributed dynamic large strain optical fiber sensor based on the detection of spontaneous Brillouin scattering
A Brillouin-based distributed optical fiber dynamic strain sensor is described which converts strain-induced Brillouin frequency shift into optical intensity variations by using an imbalanced Mach-Zhender interferometer. A 3 x 3 coupler is used at the output of this interferometer to permit differentiate and cross multiply demodulation. The demonstrated sensor is capable of probing dynamic strain disturbances over 2 km of sensing length every 0.5 s up to a strain of 10 m.epsilon with an accuracy of ±50 µ.epsilon and spatial resolution of 1.3 m.

Abstract

A Brillouin-based distributed optical fiber dynamic strain sensor is described which converts strain-induced Brillouin frequency shift into optical intensity variations by using an imbalanced Mach-Zhender interferometer. A 3 x 3 coupler is used at the output of this interferometer to permit differentiate and cross multiply demodulation. The demonstrated sensor is capable of probing dynamic strain disturbances over 2 km of sensing length every 0.5 s up to a strain of 10 m.epsilon with an accuracy of ±50 µ.epsilon and spatial resolution of 1.3 m.
