True Phase Measurement of Distributed Vibration Sensors Based on Heterodyne $\varphi $-OTDR

We demonstrate a method to truly measure the phase change originated from external vibration by heterodyne phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometer (φ-OTDR). The method of differential phase between sections of a sensing fiber is explored. In order to truly measure the phase chan...
