Abstract

The invention provides a distributed stimulated Brillouin temperature strain sensing system based on double-sideband modulation, which includes a narrow linewidth light source, a power divider, a microwave source, a pulse signal emitter, an optical receiver, an optical amplifier, an electrooptical modulator and a sensing optical fiber, wherein a pulse optical signal and a continuous signal that is modulated by double-sideband are input into the two ends of the sensing optical fiber respectively; the pulse optical signal serves as a pumping optical signal; the double-sideband continuous optical signal serves as a detecting optical signal; the pumping optical and detecting optical signals encounter to produce the stimulated Brillouin; and the continuous light carries the temperature or strain information of the points distributed along the sensing optical fiber. The double-sideband technology can effectively controls the Brillouin consumption of the pumping pulse during transmission, and greatly reduces the system error in measurement. The distributed stimulated Brillouin temperature strain sensing system is applicable to the fields as transmission cable and oil-gas pipeline monitoring and fire control, and is particularly applicable to sensing of long distance more than 50km.
