Abstract

We describe the mechanism of distribution measurement of fiber Brillouin spectrum by Brillouin Optical Correlation Domain Analysis (BOCDA), and numerically simulate the distribution of the Brillouin gain spectrum, which is expected to be measured in experiments. The simulation results agree well with the experimental results. We show the verification of the theoretical formulation of spatial resolution, by using the numerical simulations.
