| Research Abstract |
A technique is investigated to improve the performance of BOTDA which measures distributed strain along an optical fiber based on strain dependence of Brillouin frequency shift. First pump light is generated to produce negative Brillouin gain for the first time. Second pump light is phase-modulated with Golay code to utilize the negative gain as well as conventional positive one. Two methods are proposed for the modulation. It is clarified that both methods can improve signal to noise ratio for BOTDA.
