    Abstract: A distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) system based on space-division multiplexing with multi-core fiber (MCF) is proposed. It relates to a technical field of distributed optical fiber sensing. The present invention maintains the advantage of single-ended measurement in the standard DAS system, and realizes the intensity accumulation of the Rayleigh backscattering light within each core of the MCF, which can greatly improve the strain resolution of DAS systems. Moreover, the introduction of optical switch can make different code sequences transmit in the different core of the MCF simultaneously, which can make the single-pulse response with coding gain demodulated without sacrificing the frequency responding bandwidth. Furthermore, the utilization of space-division multiplexing can make multiple pulses with precious time delay transmit in the MCF simultaneously, which can greatly improve the frequency responding bandwidth of DAS system.

    Abstract: A method for distributedly measuring polarization transmission matrices of an optical fiber includes steps of: inputting a fully polarized pulse into the optical fiber with linear birefringence only; and demodulating polarization states of Rayleigh backscattered light at different points on the optical fiber from a pulse input end; after demodulating, dividing the polarization states of the Rayleigh backscattered light into Q groups in sequence, wherein every three polarization states are divided into one group; calculating a transmission matrix of Group N; and solving the equation set using a numerical analysis method for obtaining multiple solutions, and screening the multiple solutions according to characteristics of the polarization transmission matrix, wherein each time of screening provides a unique solution Mx(N) of the equation set; continually updating MA values for iteration, so as to obtain the distribution of polarization transmission matrices of the optical fiber.
