Distributed Fiber-Optic Sensor Systems<br />
• Principle: Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (OTDR)<br />
• Useable optical scattering processes:<br />
– RAMAN scattering R(T)=I a /I s =(λ s /λ a ) 4 exp(-hν/kT) → temperature<br />
– BRILLOUIN scattering ν B =2 n v A /λ → temperature, strain<br />
Local resolution: ∆L=c ∆t/2n ∆L=1m →∆t=10ns<br />
c – vacuum light velocity, n=1.5 (silica refractive index)<br />
