摘要: The present a new optical frequency domain reflectometer based on tunable fiber laser with very narrow linewidth (about 10 kHz). This instrument performs reflectivity measurements -110 dB sensitivity and 80 dynamic range. allows long-range measurements, at 150 m, spatial resolution of 16 cm. At short range, about 5 the increases to subcentimeter.
