It uses a single laser source, and the required light signals are all generated with an electro-optic modulator, resulting in high stability and excellent reliability of the measuring setup. Measurement of the induced strain in a wound fiber is presented as a demonstration of the system performanceBrillouin spectradeformationelectro-optical modulationfibre optic sensorsmonitoringreliabilitystabilitySimple distributed fiber sensor based on Brillouin gain spectrum analysistext::journal::journal article::research article
