Accurate estimation of modulation amplitude in Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry based on Rayleigh noise spectrum

Abstract In Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (BOCDR), spatial resolution relies on the modulation amplitude of the light. We propose a Rayleigh-based method that utilizes the spectral width of Rayleigh-induced noise to measure this amplitude without altering the setup or requiring...
