Abstract
We have investigated the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold of various types of fibers both theoretically and experimentally by utilizing Brillouin optical-time-domain reflectometer. The measured deviations of SB S threshold of less than +/-0.1 dB compared with the conventional method ar e demonstrated for standard single-mode fiber (SMF), large-effective-area d ispersion-shifted fiber (LEAF), TrueWave/Reduced Slope fiber (TWF), and con ventional dispersion-shifted fiber (DSF).
