Abstract
This optical fiber distribution measurement system of distributed optical fiber sensing type includes: a tunable wavelength distributed feedback LD (1) for obtaining a DTSS signal through frequency shift analysis; an external resonance laser (2) for obtaining a DAS signal through phase shift analysis; a pulse compression coding circuit (4) including an intensity modulator (4a) and an phase modulator (4b); an acousto-optic switch (5); an erbium doped optical fiber amplifier (6); a circulator (7); a diversity device (8); a digitizer (11); a CPU (12); and a serial transfer interface (13). Through calculation on discrete signals sent from the digitizer (11), the CPU (12) converts an analyzed Rayleigh frequency shift signal obtained as the DTSS signal, to phase error, and corrects an analyzed phase signal obtained as the DAS signal, by the phase error.
