Enhancing Detection Performance of the Phase-Sensitive OTDR Based Distributed Vibration Sensor Using Weighted Singular Value Decomposition

We propose a weighted singular value decomposition (WSVD) to reduce the random noise in the Rayleigh backscattering signal of the phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometry (Φ-OTDR) to enhance the detection performance of the distributed vibration sensing. A 2D image is formed by assembling t...
