Novel monitoring technique for passive optical networks based on optical frequency domain reflectometry and fiber bragg gratings. Journal of Optical Communications and Networking, 2(7), 463-468. doi:10.1364/JOCN.2.0004631943-06201943-06201943-0639http://doi.org/10.1364/JOCN.2.000463https://hdl.handle.net/11147/2588An efficient monitoring method having a very short measurement time (a few seconds) is proposed. The equal-length branches can be effectively monitored, but also the information of temperature at any place in the network can be obtained. The feasibility of this technique is experimentally demonstrated. © 2010 OSA.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPassive networksMonitoringFiber optic networksOptical frequency domain reflectometerArticle10.1364/JOCN.2.000463
