Abstract
We present a robust concept for quasi distributed strain measurement using optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) in polymer optical fibers (POF). The spatial shifts of discrete reflective events in the OTDR trace are evaluated as reference points. It is shown how such reference reflections can be prepared and which properties can be expected.
