“…Since the proposal of the phase-sensitive optical time domain reflectometer (φ-OTDR) in 1993 [1] , benefiting from its features including resistance to electromagnetic interference, corrosion resistance, high sensitivity, and distributed sensing capabilities [2] , this technology has been widely utilized in various fields such as oil and gas pipelines, construction, railway, highway safety inspection, and underwater detection [3][4][5][6][7] . Due to the coherent detection technique employed by the φ-OTDR, the output signal comprises coherent backscattered light [8] , which can lead to coherent and polarization fading phenomena, resulting in a decrease in the signal-to-noise ratio of the system. Additionally, during the recognition of perturbation signals, external disturbances and environmental factors often interfere, leading to a decline in the recognition performance of the sensing system and causing false alarms.…”
