A Faraday rotator mirror is employed at the end of the system, which eliminates the slow polarization variation of signal light and only responses to rapid polarization change caused by external vibration interference. Based on the sensing signal characteristics, the location of polarization disturbance point can be detected accurately. Experiments on polarization controller simulation and actual vibration detection show that a higher localization accuracy better than 1% is successfully obtained in 13.8 kin, 21.2 km and 35.8 km sensing fibers systems.展开更多
