    Detrimental effects in Brillouin distributed sensors caused by EDFA transient
    (Optical Society of America, 2017) Feng, Cheng; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Schneider, Thomas; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    We investigate the deleterious effect and the error in Brillouin optical time-domain analyzers induced by the combination of a low extinction ratio pulse generation with the transient behavior of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers.

    We 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.

    Simplified Brillouin sensor for structural health monitoring applications based on passive optical filtering
    (SPIE, 2015) Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Sagüés García, Mikel; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    We present a simplified configuration for distributed Brillouin optical time domain analysis sensors. The technique is based on passive optical filtering of the spectral components generated in an RF-pulse-modulated optical source. The aim of this configuration is to reduce the cost of the sensor by simplifying the generation of the optical waves involved in the sensing process. Proof-of-concept experiments demonstrate distributed temperature measurement with 1 m resolution over a 20 km sensing fiber.

    Compensation of nonlocal effects induced by the extinction ratio of pump pulses in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors
    (Optical Society of America, 2019) Mariñelarena Ollacarizqueta, Jon; Iribas Pardo, Haritz; Urricelqui Polvorinos, Javier; Loayssa Lara, Alayn; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    We demonstrate a technique to compensate the nonlocal effects that appear in Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors when pump pulses with limited extinction ratio are deployed. These recently discovered nonlocal effects are originated in the interaction between the probe wave and the pulse pedestal. Hence, their compensation method is based on deploying a modulation (dithering) of the optical frequency of the probe and pulse pedestal waves that provides a reduction of the effective interaction length between them. This is implemented by taking advantage of the chirp associated to the direct current modulation of a semiconductor laser used as common source for both waves. The net effect of this procedure is that the probe and pulse pedestal waves display efficient Brillouin interaction just at correlation peaks along the fiber where the frequency difference between both waves remains constant. Proof-of-concept experiments in a 25-km sensing link demonstrate the performance of the technique, where large errors of more than 10 MHz in the measurement of the Brillouin frequency shift are completely compensated by introducing a sinusoidal dithering to the laser source.
