Publication Open Access Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensor with pump pulse amplification(Optical Society of America, 2016) Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaWe demonstrate a simple technique to provide conventional Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors with mitigation for pump pulse attenuation. The technique is based on operating the sensor in loss configuration so that energy is transferred from the probe wave to the pump pulse that becomes amplified as it counter-propagates with the probe wave. Furthermore, the optical frequency of the probe wave is modulated along the fiber so that the pump pulse experiences a flat total gain spectrum that equally amplifies all the spectral components of the pulse, hence, preventing distortion. This frequency modulation of the probe brings additional advantages because it provides increased tolerance to non-local effects and to spontaneous Brillouin scattering noise, so that a probe power above the Brillouin threshold of the fiber can be safely deployed, hence, increasing the signal-to-noise ratio of the measurement. The method is experimentally demonstrated in a 100-km fiber link, obtaining a measurement uncertainty of 1 MHz at the worst-contrast position.Publication Open Access Distributed strain sensing with large dynamic range based on two-wavelength phase-sensitive OTDR(Optica Publishing Group, 2020) Piñeiro Ben, Enrique; Sagüés García, Mikel; Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Eyal, Avishay; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenWe demonstrate the use of two-wavelengths to enhance the dynamic range in phase-sensitive OTDR vibration sensors. The system overcomes the phase wrapping con- strains by the synthesis of an equivalent wavelength measurement.Publication Open Access Second-order non-local effects mitigation in BOTDA sensors by tracking the BFS profile(SPIE, 2017) Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta ElektronikoaWe demonstrate a technique to mitigate the residual second-order non-local effects in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) sensors in which the Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) profile is not uniform along the fiber. It is based on adding a wavelength modulation to the probe wave that makes it track the average BFS found along its way. Using this method we are able to inject a total probe wave power of 15 dBm in a 120-km sensing fiber link, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the highest probe power ever demonstrated in a long-range BOTDA sensing fiber link. The enhancement in the detected signal-to-noise ratio brought by the use of such power provides 2-MHz BFS measurement precision at the end of the 120-km sensing link with 3-m spatial resolution, all without the need to resort to additional means such as the use of coding or Raman gain.Publication Open Access Contribution to the development of distributed fiber optic sensors based on the Brillouin and Rayleigh scattering effects(2020) Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaEn esta tesis se presenta diferentes técnicas que contribuyen en la mejora de DOFS basados en dispersión Brillouin y Rayleigh. Todas estas técnicas han sido demostradas experimentalmente mostrando resultados prometedores. Con estas nuevas técnicas, los sensores BOTDA pueden llegar a medir más lejos y con más precisión. Además, las técnicas encaradas a mejorar las prestaciones basadas en dispersión Rayleigh coherente permiten mejorar la SNR de la señal, reducir el fading que afecta a la señal medida, así como incrementar notablemente la máxima amplitud de la perturbación que se puede medir.Publication Open Access Structural health monitoring of solar trackers using distributed fiber optic sensors(SPIE, 2019) Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Zurita Gabasa, Jesús; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Júdez Colorado, Aitor; López-Amo Sáinz, Manuel; Jiménez Romero, Sergio; Achaerandio, Álvaro; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, 0011-1365-2017-000122; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaWe demonstrate the application of a novel type of distributed fiber optic sensors (DFOSs) to dynamically monitor the effects of wind on solar tracker structures used in photovoltaic power stations. This DFOS is based on the stimulated Brillouin scattering nonlinear optical effect in optical fiber, which can be used to measure the distribution of strain and temperature along a given structure. However, contrary to existing solutions, the sensor provides dynamic real-time measurements with hundreds or even thousands of full simultaneous measurements for all positions in the fiber each second. Moreover, high-precision and high spatial resolution are obtained. This so-called dynamic Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (D-BOTDA) sensor provides real-time monitoring of the bending and torsion of the structure of solar trackers in response to wind load. This helps the solar tracker manufacturer asses and improve the mechanical designs so as to introduce corrective measures and develop cost-effective components that properly withstand the effects of wind at any given location. We experimentally demonstrate the application of a D-BOTDA sensing system to measure distributed bending and, for the first time to our knowledge, also distributed torsion along the stressed beam of the solar tracker. For this purpose, we have developed a procedure to instrument the torsion beam with two optical sensing fibers that are fixed helically wound along the beam in opposite directions, so that any common-mode thermal or bending effects are removed. We initially performed tests in a laboratory facility in which sections of the torsion beam could be subjected to controlled moments. Static and dynamic loads were applied and the measured deformations were compared to those obtained with fiber Bragg gratings, which just provide point measurements of strain. In both cases, full agreement was demonstrated. Finally, the system was installed in an operational solar park.Publication Open Access Second-order nonlocal effects mitigation in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors by tracking the Brillouin frequency shift profile of the fiber(IEEE, 2017) Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaWe report on an additional limitation that has been found in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) sensors due to the so-called second-order nonlocal effects (NLE). Second-order NLE appear in BOTDA setups that deploy a double probe waves to compensate the transfer of energy between the pump pulse and the probe wave, and are related to a spectral distortion of the pump pulse that leads to measurement errors and an effective limit on the maximum probe power that can be deployed in the sensor. We theoretically and experimentally demonstrate that the techniques that have been presented so far in the literature to compensate second-order NLE are only effective in the case that the Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) along the sensing fiber is uniform. However, this requirement for uniformity is not realistic in real world scenarios in which a variety of fibers with different BFS and subjected to different environmental conditions are typically deployed. Therefore, we demonstrate a new method to mitigate the effects of BFS variation in the BOTDA setups that compensate second-order NLE. This method is based on introducing an additional wavelength modulation to the probe wave so as to track the mean BFS changes along the sensing fiber link. With this method, we demonstrate a BOTDA setup that, without coding, distributed amplification, or any other form of performance enhancement, achieves a sensing length of 120 km with 3-m spatial resolution and 2-MHz measurement precision. Moreover, the setup demonstrates, to our knowledge, the largest probe power ever injected in a BOTDA sensing link.Publication Open Access Latest research on long-range Brillouin distributed sensing(SPIE, 2019) Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua projecto 0011-1365-2017-000122We review the latest developments in long-range Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors. The factors that impair the performance of these sensors, particularly in terms of their distance range, are discussed together with the latest methods to overcome them. We focus on our recent contributions based on the application of the probe dithering method, which is based on introducing a wavelength modulation to the probe wave. This technique is shown to effectively compensate nonlocal effects originated in the depletion of the pump pulse as well as of its pedestal. In addition, it can provide amplification to the pump wave with a slight modification of the setup. Furthermore, this method can be combined with pump pulse coding and a new technique for coding linearization that we have devised to further extend the sensing length into the hundreds of kilometers range.Publication Open Access Fiber-optic brillouin distributed sensors: from dynamic to long-range measurements(CRC Press, 2018) Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio IngeniaritzarenThis chapter focuses on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) sensors because they are the most successful Brillouin distributed sensors (BDS) type in terms of performance and practical applications. Distributed sensor featuring can be done in the time, coherence, or frequency domains, giving rise to the three main analysis BDS types: BOTDA, Brillouin optical correlation-domain analysis (BOCDA), and Brillouin optical frequency-domain analysis (BOFDA). The distance range of measurements performed using a BOTDA sensor is given by the length of sensing fiber that the system is able to measure with a specified performance in terms of measurement precision and time. The chapter reviews the fundamentals and the research directions in BDSs. The applications of the technology are multiple and in diverse fields¿for instance, in the oil and gas industry, where BDSs have been applied to measure temperature and strain along the umbilical cables used for subsea wells.Publication Open Access Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensor with amplification of pump pulses and tolerant to non-local effects(SPIE, 2016) Mompó Roselló, Juan José; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaWe demonstrate a simple technique to provide conventional Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensor with compensation for pump pulse attenuation and tolerance to non-local effects.

However, their performance ultimately depends on the amount of probe and pump pulse power that can be injected into the sensing fiber, which determines the signal-to-noise ratio of the detected measurement signal. The probe wave power is constrained by the generation of noise induced by spontaneous Brillouin scattering and at lower power by the so-called non-local effects. In this work, we focus on the latter. We review the physical origins of non-local effects and analyze the performance impairments that they bring. In addition, we discuss the different methods that have been proposed to counteract these effects comparing their relative merits and ultimate performance. Particularly, we focus on a technique that we have devised to compensate non-local effects which is based on introducing an optical frequency modulation or dithering to the probe wave. This method is shown to provide a comprehensive solution to most of the impairments associated with non-local effects and also to enable some side benefits, such as amplification of the pump pulses to compensate the attenuation of the fiber.
