Paper OTuL7, "Distributed Brillouin Sensor Based on Brillouin Scattering for Structural Health Monitoring")
OSI tests demonstrated a more than 3 dB increase in the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold of NexCor fiber compared with other standard single-mode fibers, an improvement that enables twice the launch power for passive optical networks (PONs) such as FTTP networks.
The test results confirmed NexCor optical fiber's improved stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold of more than 3 dB over other standard single-mode fibers, an increase that enables twice the launch power for triple play networks, such as fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) networks.
