Φ-OTDR Based on Undersampling Heterodyne Detection

open access: yesApplied Sciences
We demonstrate a distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) system based on phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry (Φ-OTDR) that employs I/Q demodulation and heterodyne detection.

Thermal background noise limitations [PDF]

open access: yes
Modern detection systems are increasingly limited in sensitivity by the background thermal photons which enter the receiving system. Expressions for the fluctuations of detected thermal radiation are derived. Incoherent and heterodyne detection processes

Instantaneous quadrature low-coherence interferometry with 3x3 fiber-optic couplers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We describe fiber-based quadrature low-coherence interferometers that exploit the inherent phase shifts of 3 x 3 and higher-order fiber-optic couplers. We present a framework based on conservation of energy to account for the interferometric shifts in 3 ...

Remote sensing of atmospheric winds using a coherent, CW lidar and speckle-turbulence interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Speckle turbulence interaction has the potential for allowing single ended remote sensing of the path averaged vector crosswind in a plane perpendicular to the line of sight to a target.

3D Fourier imaging based on 2D heterodyne detection at THz frequencies

open access: yesAPL Photonics, 2019
Holographic imaging techniques, which exploit the coherence properties of light, enable the reconstruction of the 3D scenery being viewed. While the standard approaches for the recording of holographic images require the superposition of scattered light ...

Broadband heterodyne electro-optic sampling using a lithium niobate ridge-waveguide

open access: yesApplied Physics Express
We demonstrated the bandwidth broadening of terahertz waves detected by heterodyne electro-optical sampling by implementing a ridge waveguide structure in a lithium niobate (LiNbO _3 ) crystal.

A New Acoustic Emission Sensor Based Gear Fault Detection Approach [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Prognostics and Health Management, 2013
In order to reduce wind energy costs, prognostics and health management (PHM) of wind turbine is needed to ensure the reliability and availability of wind turbines. A gearbox is an important component of a wind turbine.
