Frequency scanned phase sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry interrogation in multimode optical fibers

Standard multimode optical fibers normally support transmission over some 100 modes. Large differences in the propagation constant and the spatial distribution of distinct modes degrade the performance of phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry measurements. In this work, we present a new...
