Novel approaches can substantially overcome this limit through the prior activation of the acoustic wave.Polarization-Maintaining FiberDynamic Grating SpectrumContinuous-WaveScatteringGainPulseTimeStrainAdvanced Brillouin-based distributed optical fibre sensors with sub-meter scale spatial resolutiontext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
