1-cm-Spatial-Resolution Brillouin Optical Time-Domain Analysis Based on Bright Pulse Brillouin Gain and Complementary Code

We studied the impact of optical pulse coding techniques on Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) systems experimentally. The results show that complementary-coding-based schemes can provide significant enhanced signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to the BOTDA system. Using complementary coding, th...
