Abstract

A method and system for inspecting polarization in a fibered optical path. The method being executed by a computer-implemented system comprising a controller and at least one detector communicatively coupled to the controller, the computer-implemented system being operatively connected to the fibered optical path, including: causing a laser to emit at least one optical pulse into the fibered optical path; detecting a plurality of reflected optical signals from the fibered optical path; determining a plurality of experimental correlation values based on the plurality of reflected optical signals and a reference signal function; and in response to a given experimental correlation value of the plurality of experimental correlation values being less than a threshold, identifying a mechanical disturbance caused by birefringence in the fibered optical path, the mechanical disturbance being located at a location of the plurality of locations corresponding to the given experimental correlation value.
