OverviewFundamentals of Rayleigh scatter-based fiber optic sensingCapabilities of Rayleigh-based systemsComparison with other fiber optic distributed sensing techniquesApplications
In Rayleigh scatter-based distributed fiber optic sensing, a coherent laser pulse is sent along an optic fiber, and scattering sites within the fiber cause the fiber to act as a distributed interferometer with a gauge length approximately equal to the pulse length. The intensity of the reflected light is measured as a function of time after transmission of the laser pulse. This is known as Coherent Rayleigh Optical Time Domain Reflectometry (COTDR). When the pulse has had time to travel the full length of the fiber and
