摘要
An apparatus, including: an optical sensor fiber having a first end optically couplable to receive light from a light source, wherein the optical sensor fiber is a multimode optical fiber configured to carry light in different spatial propagating modes, wherein the optical sensor fiber is constructed such that environmental fluctuations couple light energy between some of the spatial propagating modes; a spatial propagating mode demultiplexer optically coupled to a second end the optical sensor fiber and configured to separate a plurality of light signals received from different ones of the spatial propagating modes; and an optical receiver configured to process the separated light signals and to estimate a longitudinal position of one of the environmental fluctuations along the optical sensor fiber based a measured delay between arrival times of the separated light signals.
