Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for simultaneous distributed temperature and vibration sensing using a multimode optical fiber (MMF) is disclosed. The distributed temperature and vibration sensing may include a single mode optical fiber (SMF) coupled to an MMF via a connection in which a central axis of the SMF is aligned with a central axis of the MMF. The connections provides of excitation of the fundamental mode within the MMF by light passing from the SMF into the MMF through the connection.
