Title:
ESTIMATION DEVICE, ESTIMATION METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/069740
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
One aspect of the present invention provides an estimation device comprising a control unit that uses a reception signal resulting from a transmission signal that is an optical signal transmitted by a transmitter being propagated through an optical fiber to estimate a vibration position that is a position on the optical fiber where vibration has been induced by the vibration of the outside environment. The control unit executes estimation processing comprising: compensation processing including wavelength dispersion compensation processing for compensating for wavelength dispersion of the reception signal; transmission signal estimation processing for estimating the transmission signal on the basis of a result of the wavelength dispersion compensation processing; wavelength dispersion re-application processing for re-application the wavelength dispersion to a result of the compensation processing; and vibration position estimation processing for estimating the vibration position on the basis of the result of the transmission signal estimation processing and the result obtained after inverse mapping of a mapping corresponding to the vibration position and indicating changes of the transmission signal due to propagation through the optical fiber acting on the result of the wavelength dispersion re-application processing.
