Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for correcting the wavenumber sensitivity of a distributed fiber optic sensor are disclosed. The distributed fiber optic sensor is deployed in a region of interest to measure a characteristic of an incident acoustic wavefield. A composite response of the distributed sensor is determined based on backscatter optical signals generated by the sensor, where the composite response is indicative of a characteristic of an incident acoustic wavefield. The composite response includes at least a first response having a first wavenumber sensitivity and a second response having a second wavenumber sensitivity. The second wavenumber sensitivity is selected so that wavenumber notches of the first and second responses do not overlap.
