Genetic-optimised aperiodic code for distributed optical fibre sensors

Abstract: Distributed optical fibre sensors deliver a map of a physical quantity along an optical fibre, providing a unique solution for health monitoring of targeted structures. Considerable developments over recent years have pushed conventional distributed sensors towards their ultimate performance, while any significant improvement demands a substantial hardware overhead. Here, a technique is proposed, encoding the interrogating light signal by a single-sequence aperiodic code and spatially resolving the fibre infor… Show more

“…Extending the sensing range for distributed Brillouin optical fiber sensors is always a perpetual topic, and a long sensing distance is vital for the monitoring of large-scale infrastructures, such as oil/gas pipelines and power lines [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58]. However, due to the Kerr effect [39,40] and non-local effect [41][42][43], the sensing range is usually limited to a few tens of kilometers.…”

“…Distributed optical fiber sensors are mainly divided into the Rayleigh fiber-optic sensors, [12,13] the spontaneous/stimulated Brillouin fiber-optic sensors, [14,15] and the spontaneous Raman fiber-optic sensors. [16][17][18][19] Among these approaches, the Raman optical time domain reflection (ROTDR) sensor has become a research hotspot due to its distributed temperature detection, [18] simple device, [19] fast measurement speed, [9] etc. In ROTDR, the spatial resolution is an extremely important performance index, it represents the smallest unit or the smallest measuring blind zone that the system can distinguish.…”

“…[28,29] Therefore, improving the spatial resolution of the system while maintaining a long sensing distance is a critical problem for the ROTDR. Recently, some advanced demodulation methods are developed, such as special fiber sensing, [26,27] optical pulse coding, [19,[30][31][32] and deconvolution algorithm. [33] The special fiber sensing technology, such as few-mode fiber (FMF), can suppress the influence of intermodal dispersion over the long sensing distance.…”
