    Analysis of Crosstalk Effects in Phase-Otdr System Using Fiber Bragg Grating Array
    (Elsevier, 2023) Koçal, Ertunga Burak; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Wuilpart, Marc; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this paper, the parasitic components (i.e., multi-reflections, Rayleigh scattering, photodetector noise, and phase variations due to external perturbations) are analysed and based on this analysis, a new signal to noise ratio (SNR) definition is provided suitable for the FBG-assisted Phase-OTDR system. A detailed analysis of performance parameters in the presence of multi reflection crosstalk (including its first- and second-order components) and spectral shadowing crosstalk is presented. SNR was calculated for different reflectivity and spacing lengths showing that the maximum number of cascaded FBGs can be significantly increased by using lower FBG reflectivity. It was also observed that the spacing length distance does not have a significant impact on the maximum number of FBGs that can be interrogated. By comparing single-pulse and double-pulse configurations, the use of double pulse was shown to provide higher SNR values when the number of FBGs is around 100 FBGs. The multi-reflection crosstalk when combined with the spectral-shadowing effect was demonstrated to create secondary crosstalk components making the interpretation of spectral analysis more difficult.

    An Overview of the Recent Advances in Fbg-Assisted Phase-Sensitive Otdr Technique and Its Applications
    (IEEE, 2020) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Koçal, Ertunga Burak; Jason, Johan; Wuilpart, Marc; Sainz, Manuel Lopez-Amo; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    In this paper, we discuss the operation principles, sensing mechanism, challenges and application areas of FBG-assisted phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry. A special emphasis is given to the interrogation of fiber Bragg grating arrays for vibration sensing application. Results obtained by different research groups are compared in terms of performance characteristics and future perspectives. Recent progress obtained through our research collaboration are also presented. In particular, the detrimental spectral shadowing effect and multiple reflection crosstalk are analysed and mitigation techniques are proposed. © 2020 IEEE.

    Development of a Phase-Otdr Interrogator Based on Coherent Detection Scheme
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2018) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Wuilpart, Marc; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    We present in this work, the experimental demonstration of a phase-sensitive Optical Time- Domain Reflectometer (phase-OTDR) having coherent detection scheme. An analysis algorithm has also been developed to calculate amplitude and phase evolution of the experimental phase-OTDR traces. The efficiency of the analysis algorithm to determine the position of the applied vibration has been verified for a single and two simultaneous vibrations. The slow-time analysis results show a good agreement with the mathematical calculations discussed in the paper. This work could have a technological implication in many fields such as distributed vibration sensor for railway monitoring applications.

    Laboratory Evaluation of a Phase-Otdr Setup for Railway Monitoring Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Jason, J.; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Wuilpart, Marc; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry (phase-OTDR) has recently drawn increased attention for applications within the railway transportation sector. In this paper we present a laboratory approach to demonstrate the feasibility of an interrogator of vibrations along railways by means of fiber-optic cables. Contrary to the common use of piezo-electric phase modulators in laboratory setups, a vibration shaker is used to excite a plastic tube to which the fiber is attached. Measurement of event position and frequency is demonstrated in a range up to 7000 Hz.

    Centralised Optical Monitoring of Tree-Structured Passive Optical Networks Using a Raman-Assisted Otdr
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2007) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Grillet, A.; Wuilpart, Marc; Giannone, D.; Hancq, J.; Ravet, G.; Mégret, Patrice; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Monitoring of tree-structured Passive Optical Networks from a central office is difficult to achieve using a standard OTDR. Switchable reflective elements placed at the ONU can help to discriminate between the branches. In parallel, a Raman assisted OTDR is shown to increase the dynamic range of the reflectometry measurement, thus enabling to detect more faults in the network, and especially fibre breaks after the splitter. ©2007 IEEE.

    A Quasi-Distributed Temperature Sensor Interrogated by Optical Frequency-Domain Reflectometer
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2011) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Yüksel Aldoğan, Kıvılcım; Wuilpart, Marc; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This paper presents the analysis of a quasi-distributed sensor based on the concatenation of identical low-reflective fiber Bragg gratings. We experimentally demonstrated a temperature sensor using ten cascaded gratings which are interrogated by an optical frequency domain reflectometer. Repeatability measurements highlighted a standard deviation on the measured temperature smaller than 1.5 °C. A complete demonstration of mathematical formulas which are used to obtain the temperature information is also provided. © 2011 IOP Publishing Ltd.
