We investigate the performance of distributed acoustic sensing over multi-mode fibers based on heterodyne phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry. We report a mathematical model describing the relation between phase variation and applied strain in the presence of multi-mode propagation that supports the feasibility of distributed acoustic measurements over multi-mode fibers. We also propose a novel coherent averaging method that achieves up to a three-fold reduction of the noise floor compared to state-of-the-art methods.

Abstract
We investigate the performance of distributed acoustic sensing over multi-mode fibers based on heterodyne phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry. We report a mathematical model describing the relation between phase variation and applied strain in the presence of multi-mode propagation that supports the feasibility of distributed acoustic measurements over multi-mode fibers. We also propose a novel coherent averaging method that achieves up to a three-fold reduction of the noise floor compared to state-of-the-art methods.File in questo prodotto:
