An interrogation system may be coupled to a fiber-optic cable positioned in a wellbore to interrogate a plurality of optical sensors coupled to the fiber-optic cable. The interrogation system may include an optical frequency comb source having a plurality of narrowband optical carriers transmitting light to the plurality of optical sensors. Each of the plurality of optical sensors may include a pair of partial reflectors to reflect the light transmitted by the optical frequency comb to one or more optical receivers to receive the reflection signals In some aspects, the interrogation system may include a de-interleaver device for separating reflected light signals having adjacent wavelength into separate optical waveguides. In additional aspects, interrogation system may also include a data processing system having a processing device for performing interferometric measurements using the reflected light signals.
