Strong Cancellation of RIN Transfer in a Raman-Assisted BOTDA Using Balanced Detection

Raman assistance is one of the most interesting routes toward extending the range of Brillouin optical timedomain analysis (BOTDA) systems. Unfortunately, the use of Raman amplification normally entails an important relative intensity noise (RIN) transfer toward the probe wave, which severely limits...
