Abstract

This paper presents a mathematical model that describes the influence of defects in an anisotropic optical fibre on its polarised frequency domain reflectograms. The model relies on the Jones matrix formalism. Calculated reflectograms are presented for a uniform axial twist of an optical fibre. As input data for simulation, we use real distributed optical parameters of the fibre determined by polarised light Brillouin reflectometry.
