On the basis of the theoretical analysis of the temperature effect of fiber Raman backscattering
this paper investigates in detail the fiber distributed temperature sensor system that is based on anti-Stokes/Stokes scattering optical intensity ratio values and develops a single-mode fiber-based 5 km distributed temperature sensor on the basis of analyzing the requirements of the main devices of the system.The experimental results show that this system can make accurate distributed temperature detection with a temperature resolution ratio of 1℃ and a spatial resolution ratio of 2 m.
