Abstract :
A novel fiber-optic distribution monitoring system using birefringent optical circuit synthesis for monitoring the external perturbations on the fiber is demonstrated. The detection is based on the measurements of frequency-dependent Stokes parameters and the estimation of the variations of mode coupling angle distributed along the sensing fiber.
