Zusammenfassung:Systems, methods, and structures for overcoming Rayleigh backscatter in wavelength division multiplexed fiber optic systems and in particular fiber optic sensor systems along with method(s) for detecting faults in optical networks employing the intentional temporal separation of share wavelength noise and demarcation signals in conjunction with the use of accumulated Rayleigh noise signal(s) to detect a fault location.
