Abstract

This paper presents a novel method for characterization of gain spectrum of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in single-mode optical fiber. This method is based on the usage of double-frequency probing emission. For conversion of the complex SBS spectra from optical to the electrical domain single-sideband modulation is used. Detection of double-frequency components position in the gain spectrum occurs through the amplitude modulation index of the curve and the phase difference between curves of probing and passing components.
