Article Citation - WoS: 23A Quasi-Distributed Temperature Sensor Interrogated by Optical Frequency-Domain Reflectometer(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2011) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Mégret, Patrice; Wuilpart, MarcThis 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.Article Citation - WoS: 97Analysis and Suppression of Nonlinear Frequency Modulation in an Optical Frequency-Domain Reflectometer(The Optical Society, 2009) Yüksel, Kıvılcım; Wuilpart, Marc; Mégret, PatriceA new method for monitoring the nonlinearities perturbing the optical frequency sweep in high speed tunable laser sources is presented. The swept-frequency monitoring system comprises a Mach-Zehnder interferometer and simple signal processing steps. It has been implemented in a coherent optical frequency domain reflectometer which allowed to drastically reduce the effects of nonlinear sweep, resulting to a spatial resolution enhancement of 30 times. © 2009 Optical Society of America.
