Distributed optical fibre sensors deliver a map of a physical quantity along an optical fibre,
providing a unique solution for health monitoring of targeted structures. Considerable …

The distributed Brillouin analysis of an 8.8-km-long fiber with a spatial resolution of 2 cm is
presented. All 440 000 potential resolution points are addressed in the measurement. A 7 …

A new, hybrid time-domain and correlation-domain Brillouin analysis technique is proposed
and demonstrated, providing a large number of high-resolution acquisition points. The …

A continuously operating laser range-finder setup based on the incoherent compression of
periodic binary unipolar sequences is analyzed and demonstrated experimentally. The …

Radar pulse compression is a prevalent radar technique that increases the bandwidth of a
coherent radar pulse by intrapulse frequency modulation or phase coding. A matched filter …

A pulsed laser system is considered for long-range target detection. Single-pulse power
received from a target may be low compared to the noise and background clutter power …

We propose a processor based on the concatenation of two fractional temporal Talbot
dispersive lines with balanced dispersion to perform the DFT of a repetitive electrical …

The compression of extended, coded sequences allows for laser ranging measurements
with low peak power levels. Previous realizations of this approach were restricted by …

Periodic binary sequences with good autocorrelation properties are widely used in
communications and continuous wave (CW) pulse compression radar systems. To achieve …

A radar system includes a transmitter, a receiver and a processor. The receiver receives
radio signal that includes the transmitted radio signal reflected from targets in the …
