Abstract

The invention discloses a phase optical time-domain reflectometer and optical fiber double-pulse difference based perturbation detector, and belongs to the field of distributed optical fiber sensing.The perturbation detector comprises an ECL laser, couplers, polarization controllers, acousto-optic modulators, a signal generator, circulators, symmetrical surface core to-be-detected optical fiber,balance detectors, a differential circuit, a low-pass filter, a high-frequency data acquisition card and a computer. Certain pulse width difference is introduced under the pumping of two beams of pulses by using a symmetrical double-core optical fiber, and a problem of the contradiction between the detection sensitivity and the space resolution of the system can be solved to a certain extent through differential processing. Meanwhile, a problem of frequency instability or frequency drift of a light source can also be solved by using a differential detection method so as to acquire a miniaturized optical time-domain reflectometer which is high in detection sensitivity, high in space resolution and good in stability; and the problem of the contradiction between the detection sensitivity andthe space resolution of the original phase sensitive optical time-domain reflectometer is solved, and the space resolution can be improved while high measurement sensitivity is ensured.
