Investigations of Backscattering Effects in Optical Fibers and Their Influences on the Link Monitoring

In this paper, first, we employed the coupled-mode theory to investigate the backscattering power characteristics of Rayleigh backscattering (RB) and stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) both synchronously and precisely. We discovered how the RB and SBS power changed with pump powers and fiber leng...
