A new sensing technique for the distributed measurement of temperature and strain, based on Brillouin optical frequency-domain analysis, is presented. Theoretical investigations and first experimental results of distributed measurements demonstrate the feasibility of this new concept.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
