Description
The OZ Optics' ForeSight™ family of fiber optic Brillouin distributed strain and temperature sensors (DSTS) utilizes Brillouin scattering to provide sophisticated optical sensor systems for distributed sensing. These sensors offer a direct method of measuring strain and temperature changes along the entire length of an optical fiber.
The BOTDA+BOTDR Combo Module combines Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analyzer (BOTDA) and Brillouin Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (BOTDR) capabilities, allowing for versatile measurements even in the presence of fiber breaks.
