Abstract
The paper presents theoretical and experimental investigations on distributed anti-Stokes ratio thermometry (DART) sensing for monitoring temperature in complicated structure. A technique, based on maximizing signal to noise ratio (SNR) of DART, has been proposed. A preliminary prototype DART system based on a microcomputer has been developed and optimized by this technique. It has spatial resolution of 15.6 m (limited by pulse width of the laser), measuring time of 160 s, temperature resolution of 7 degrees Celsius, sensing upper limit of 260 degrees Celsius, and sensing distance of 1.5 km.
