Abstract :
A distributed sensor system employing spontaneous Raman scattering with use of correlation-coding techniques and a single-detector scheme is discussed and experimentally characterised. A sensing distance of up to 8 km is achieved with high spatial and temperature resolutions; use of correlation-coding significantly reduces measurement time and allows use of low-power laser sources.
