Significance Brillouin optical time-domain analyzer(BOTDA)has been widely studied and employed in academia and industry due to its capability of providing information about the spatial distribution of targeted quantities over a long optical fiber.Several advanced techniques have been proposed during the last decade to further enhance the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)beyond the conventional single-pulse BOTDA.As one of the most efficient approaches,optical pulse coding technology has been extensively developed,and it launches one or several trains of pulses into the sensing fiber,with the exploitation of code types such as Golay,Simplex,Cyclic,genetic-optimized codes,and their derivatives.Meanwhile,this technology can assist BOTDA to further achieve considerable SNR improvement without compromising the spatial resolution and measurement time and thus has significant superiority and application prospects.Despite many corresponding advances,there are still a series of challenges in cost reduction and performance improvement.Therefore,it is important and necessary to summarize the existing research to inspire the future development of this field more rationally.Focusing on the BOTDA sensors based on optical pulse coding,we introduce the principle of several mainstream optical pulse coding technologies employed in distributed fiber sensors,and discuss the research progress of BOTDA sensors based on optical pulse coding in recent years.Progress The fundamentals of conventional optical pulse coding technologies applied in BOTDA sensors are reviewed in detail,including unicolor unipolar codes(Golay,Simplex,Cyclic,and deconvolution-based codes),color codes,and bipolar codes.The theoretical coding gain of such present mainstream coding schemes is also summarized,all of which can be approximately regarded as proportional to the square root of the code length.It is significant and necessary to improve and optimize the coding system for reducing the influence of system imperfections and get as close as possible to the theoretica
