Abstract

A system and method for simultaneously addressing multiple parallel distributed fiber optic sensors using a single interrogation instrument is disclosed. One or more of the fiber optic sensors are provided with a non-reflective delay element to prevent an overlap in time between backscatter returns from the distributed fiber optic sensors, thereby allowing the backscatter returns from each sensor to be distinguished based on round-trip transit time.
