The distributed control of temperature is an actual task for various application such as oil & gas fields, high-voltage power lines, fire alarm systems etc. The most perspective are optical fiber distributed temperature sensors (DTS). They have advantages on accuracy, resolution and range, but have a high cost. Nevertheless, for some application the accuracy of measurement and localization aren't so important as cost. The results of an experimental study of low-cost Raman based DTS based on standard OTDR are represented.
The analysis of semiconductor optical amplifier applications in Radio-over-Fiber systems of telecommunication
networks is given. In such systems semiconductor optical amplifier can be used for either amplification, modulation or
detection, and also as an universal device.
