Abstract
Brillouin-scattering-based sensors have been widely applied in distributed temperature or strain measurement in recent 20 years. Brillouin optical correlation-domain technology has extensive development and application prospects because of its millimeter-level spatial resolution, distribution measurement, and high accuracy. Traditional Brillouin-scattering-based sensors, requiring a time-consuming frequency-sweep process, struggle to achieve dynamic strain measurement. In this article, Brillouin optical correlation-domain analysis and reflectometry based on fast-sweep frequency and slope-assisted methods will be reviewed. The main merits, drawbacks, and performances of these schemes are compared, and the avenues for future research and development of these two technologies are also explored.
