Abstract

A BOTDA system that combined optical pulse coding techniques and coherent detection includes a narrow linewidth laser, two polarization-maintaining couplers, microwave generator, two electro-optic modulators (EOMs), fiber under test, an optical circulator, a 3 dB coupler, a polarization scrambler, a pulse generator, a balance photodetector, an electrical spectrum analyzer, digital signal processing unit and a frequency shifter. The optical pulse coding techniques and coherent detection are simultaneously used in the invented system, which can be enhance the signal-to-noise ration (SNR), the measuring accuracy and the sensing distance of BOTDA. Moreover, the proposed system has the capacity of break interrogation.
