Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Brillouin optical distributed sensing device and method is provided and includes a structure for generating an optical pulsed signal and an optical probe signal. The structure includes a circulation component for directing the optical pulsed signal to a sensing optical fiber, and directing an optical measurement signal with Brillouin scattering information arising from the sensing optical fiber toward a detection apparatus. Also included is an optical routing component for configuring the device to allow generating: (i) according to a first configuration, an optical measurement signal with stimulated Brillouin scattering information resulting from the interaction of the optical pulsed signal, and an optical probe signal propagating in the sensing optical fiber in a direction opposite to the optical pulsed signal, or (ii) according to a second configuration, an optical measurement signal with spontaneous Brillouin scattering information resulting from the propagation of the optical pulsed signal in the sensing optical fiber.
