Observation of coherent Rayleigh noise in single-source bidirectional optical fiber systems

The authors report noise in a directional optical fiber system that they believe arises from the interference of the signal light with the Rayleigh backscattered light. This noise, called coherent Rayleigh noise (CRN), is the dominant noise source in this system. The interference provides a mechanis...
