The co-existence of both traffic signal and optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) signal in active fiber monitoring will affect the dynamic range of the OTDR due to backscattered stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). In this paper, a simulation model and hardware experiment are proposed to investiga...
