Brillouin gain/loss spectrum distortions in single-tone based BOTDA sensors

The impact of probe power on the distortions of both pump pulse and Brillouin gain/loss spectrum in single-tone probe based BOTDA system is experimentally investigated for the first time. The results indicate probe power limitations in a couple of recent techniques, offering practical probe power th...

Summary:The impact of probe power on the distortions of both pump pulse and Brillouin gain/loss spectrum in single-tone probe based BOTDA system is experimentally investigated for the first time. The results indicate probe power limitations in a couple of recent techniques, offering practical probe power thresholds securing the robustness in such methods.
