Abstract :
Optical frequency-domain reflectometry (OFDR) shows promise as a diagnostic tool for high-resolution ranging in fibre/integrated-optic systems, and in high-resolution distributed fibre-optic sensors. We discuss some signal processing aspects of this technology, potential performance and application.
