  • Abstract
    A technique for the elimination of coherent Rayleigh backscatter effects in fibre optic Michelson interferometers is demonstrated. This technique allows interferometers to be addressed over a significant length of fibre lead, without Rayleigh backscatter induced excess noise limitations.
