Paper: Brillouin Distributed Fiber Sensors: an overview and applications 

AUTHORS: C.A. Galíndez-Jamioy, José Miguel López-Higuera 

Abstract: A review focused on real world applications of Brillouin distributed fiber sensors is presented in this paper. After a brief overview of the theoretical principles, some works to face the two main technical challenges (large dynamic range and higher spatial resolution) are commented. Then an overview of some real and on-field applications is done.
