Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and a method for measuring optical fiber Brillouin gain spectrum using rectangular spectrum probe light, and belongs to the technical field of optical fiber Brillouin gain spectrum measurement. Background technique [0002] The Brillouin gain spectrum contains important information such as Brillouin frequency shift, line width, and gain envelope. It is widely used in distributed optical fiber sensing, filtering and amplification of weak signals, and Brillouin lidar detection. In order to obtain a Brillouin gain spectrum with a higher signal-to-noise ratio SNR, the pump-detection method is usually used for measurement, that is, a tunable laser or microwave generator is used to control an electro-optic intensity modulator to generate Stokes frequency-shifted probe light. It interacts with the oppositely propagating pump light in the Brillouin amplifier medium to realize the energy or power transfer of the pump light to the pr...
