A high-spatial-resolution OFDR distributed temperature sensor based on Au-SMF was experimentally demonstrated by using step-by-step and image wavelet denoising methods (IWDM). The measured temperature between 50 and 600 °C could be successfully demodulated by using SM-IWDM at a spatial resolution of 3.2 mm. The temperature sensitivity coefficient of the Au-SMF was 3.18 GHz/°C. The accuracy of the demodulated temperature was approximately 0.24 °C. Such a method has great potential to expand the temperature measurement range, which is very useful for high-temperature applications.
