Distributed acoustic sensing relies on light which is Rayleigh backscattered from small variations in the of the fiber. This highly sensitive technology is used for monitoring critical infrastructure such as power cables, pipelines, or railroad tracks. Fiber-optic distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) promises great application prospects in smart grids due to its superior capabilities, including resistance to electromagnetic interference, long-distance coverage, high sensitivity and real-time monitoring.

Distributed acoustic sensing relies on light which is Rayleigh backscattered from small variations in the refractive index of the fiber. The backscattered light has the same frequency as the transmitted light. There are a number of other distributed fiber sensing techniques that rely on different scattering mechanisms and can be used to measure other parameters. Brillouin scatter occurs due to the interaction between the light and acoustic phonons travelling in the fiber. As the light is scattered by a
