Simplified Brillouin sensor for structural health monitoring applications based on passive optical filtering
(SPIE, 2015)
Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
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 ...
Gain dependence of measured spectra in coherent Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors
(SPIE, 2016)
Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We report on the effects of large pump pulse powers on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) sensors based on phase-modulated probe wave and coherent detection. It is found that the large Brillouin gain that comes ...
Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensor with amplification of pump pulses and tolerant to non-local effects

Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We 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. The technique is based on operating ...
Enhanced tolerance to pulse extinction ratio in Brillouin optical time domain analysis sensors by dithering of the optical source
(SPIE, 2015)
Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We demonstrate the relaxation of the stringent requirements placed on the pulse extinction ratio in long-range Brillouin optical time-domain analysis sensors (BOTDA) by modulating the wavelength of the laser source that ...
Second-order non-local effects mitigation in BOTDA sensors by tracking the BFS profile

Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We 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 ...

Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
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 ...

the ...
Phasorial DPP-BOTDA sensor tolerant to non-local effects
(SPIE, 2014)
Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We introduce a modification of the differential pulse width pair technique in a BOTDA sensor based on a phase modulated probe wave and RF demodulation. This provides a differential Brillouin phasorial signal with high ...
Polarization diversity for Brillouin distributed fiber sensors based on a double orthogonal pump
(SPIE, 2014)
Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpena,
We demonstrate a novel Brillouin optical time domain analysis sensor deploying a polarization diversity technique which eliminates the need for polarization scrambling, providing measurements that are largely immune to the ...
