Abstract
In this work, an interferometric sensor has been interrogated 290 km away from the monitoring station, reaching the longest distance in fiber optic sensing up to date. This has been attained by employing a double-pumped random distributed feedback fiber laser as the light source for a fiber optic low-coherence interferometry scheme. Additionally, the capability of the system to achieve coherence multiplexing for ultra-long range measurements (up to 270 km) has been proved, without presenting crosstalk between the sensors. The use of coherence multiplexing together with a random distributed feedback fiber laser addresses two of the main limitations of long-range sensing setups: their limited multiplexing capability and the need to reach the maximum monitoring distance.
