Slope-assisted Brillouin optical correlation-domain reflectometry (SA-BOCDR) is a recently developed structural health monitoring technique for measuring strain, temperature, and loss distributions along optical fibers. Although the basic operational principle of this method has been clarified, no measurements using optical fibers embedded in actual structures have been reported yet. As a first step toward such practical applications, in this work, we present an example of SA-BOCDR-based diagnosis using a composite structure with carbon fiber-reinforced plastics. The system’s output agrees well with the actual strain distributions. We were also able to detect the breakage of the embedded fiber, thus demonstrating the promise of SA-BOCDR for practical applications.
