FIGURE 1. A near-infrared pulsed laser signal is sent down an optical fiber, creating Rayleigh, Brillouin, and Raman backscattering—all of which are used for different types of distributed sensing, as seen in this spectral schematic. Brillouin and Raman scattering occur via the Stokes and anti-Stokes processes.
Optical fibers used for sensing can measure temperature, strain, pressure, sound, electrical current, and even the 3D shape of the fiber itself.
