Monitoring of large structures using brillouin spectrum analysis

Abstract

Brillouin scattering spectrum analysis is used to measure to strain, displacement, temperature or other physical quantities at any location along an optical fiber attached to a structure. The fiber can be interrogated with different pulse widths for coarse and fine scans. The fiber can also have multiple sensors, either formed in a single fiber or branching off from a backbone fiber, in which case other segments of the fiber can be used for temperature compensation.
