Abstract
A concise and adaptive sidelobe suppression algorithm based on a least mean square (LMS) filter is proposed for pulse-compressed signals of a phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometer (Φ-OTDR) system. The algorithm is suitable for the denoising filtering process of phase coding OTDR (PC-OTDR) systems and mitigates the sidelobe effect due to matched filtering. In a simulation experiment, Rayleigh backscattering (RBS) signals including phase-coded pulse signals are generated and decoded to verify that the LMS algorithm can eliminate the sidelobes more effectively than the windowing method and the recursive least squares (RLS) method. Then, the PC-OTDR system is set up and combined with the LMS algorithm for positioning experiments. The results show that the peak side lobe ratio (PSLR) of the signals can reach −15.86 dB, which is 4.26 dB lower than the raw pulse compressed signal.
期刊介绍:
Photonics (ISSN 2304-6732) aims at a fast turn around time for peer-reviewing manuscripts and producing accepted articles. The online-only and open access nature of the journal will allow for a speedy and wide circulation of your research as well as review articles. We aim at establishing Photonics as a leading venue for publishing high impact fundamental research but also applications of optics and photonics. The journal particularly welcomes both theoretical (simulation) and experimental research. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
