We demonstrate, for the first time to our knowledge, the extension of the measurement range of Brillouin distributed sensors (BDS) by using a distributed Brillouin amplifier (DBA) to compensate the attenuation of the sensor's pump pulses. The technique is based on injecting an extra DBA pump wave in the fiber to generate an additional Brillouin interaction to that used for sensing. Moreover, the bandwidth of the DBA is tailored to fit that of the pump pulses by deploying a wavelength modulation of the DBA pump that is synchronized to the pump. Experimental proof of concept results demonstrate a fivefold enhancement of the measurement range of a BDS, from 10.36 km to more than 50 km in this particular case. Moreover, it is found that the use of the DBA does not introduce any significant penalty in the detection signal to noise ratio, highlighting the potential of the technique to provide much larger sensing lengths.
