Dispersion-Induced Delay Deviation and Its Influence on Distributed Strain Measurement Using OFDR
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The broad wavelength tuning range in optical frequency-domain reflectometry (OFDR) enables high-spatial-resolution distributed strain sensing. The large wavelength tuning range of over tens of nanometers makes the issue of dispersion non-negligible; however, the influences of dispersion on the sensing performance in OFDR are seldom discussed in the literature. For high performance measurement, it is necessary to compensate strain induced delay to maintain high coherence between the reference measurement and the sensing measurement. In this work, we find out that the presence of group velocity dispersion introduces significant deviations in determining the delay in a distributed manner. The larger the applied strain is, the greater the induced delay deviation becomes. We also investigate the influences of the delay deviation on distributed strain demodulation based on conventional cross-correlation calculation, showing that high-spatial-resolution distributed strain measurement requires dispersion compensation which allows the delay to be accurately determined and compensated along the sensing fiber. The conclusion in this work indicate that for applications requiring specialty fibers or waveguides, or for scenarios demanding ultrahigh spatial resolution, dispersion influence should not be ignored and it needs to be compensated to enhance the performance.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
