Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical fiber sensing, in particular to a distributed optical fiber sensing system for simultaneous measurement of temperature, strain and vibration. Background technique [0002] The key technologies of the existing independent distributed temperature measurement system, distributed strain measurement system, and distributed vibration measurement system have become mature and have industrial-level applications, and the performance parameters of the system (spatial resolution, measurement accuracy, etc.) constantly breaking through. However, due to the limitation of backscattered signal power, most of the sensing fibers of these independent distributed measurement systems are multimode fibers, and there are relatively few research materials on distributed sensing systems based on single-mode fibers. At most, the sensing system only realizes the simultaneous measurement of two physical quantities (colline...
