Design and Analysis of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Fiber Optic System for Distributed Sensing Using Optisystem

2015 International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR)  
Distributed fiber optic sensor based on Brillouin scattering has become increasingly popular due to its advantage of simultaneously measuring temperature and strain. The Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) threshold, sensing distance, signal-tonoise ratio and spatial resolution are critical parameters to the performance of Brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (BOTDR sensor. The result had shown SBS suppression by 4 dB to achieve the maximum sensing distance of up to 60 km using
