Descripción
Resumen:In optical frequency domain reflectometry (OFDR), the random optical noise in Rayleigh backscattering and the sliding window length in the algorithm cause a trade-off between sensing spatial resolution and accuracy. This paper proposes a novel high-spatial-resolution high-accuracy OFDR distributed sensor based on a seamless femtosecond weak fiber Bragg grating (WFBG) array. Using femtosecond laser point-by-point (PbP) inscription technology, a 5 cm long seamless weak grating array was successfully fabricated on a polyimide fiber, consisting of ten 5 mm long WFBGs. The experimental results demonstrate that a sensing spatial resolution of 533 μm and a wavelength demodulation accuracy of ±2.05 pm were achieved for the first time.
