Quantum Noise Limited Temperature-Change Estimation for Phase-OTDR Employing Coherent Detection

Abstract

The quantum limit is a fundamental lower bound on the uncertainty when estimating a parameter in a system dominated by the minimum amount of noise (quantum noise). For the first time, we derive and demonstrate a quantum limit for temperature-change estimation for coherent phase-OTDR sensing-systems.
