Time and Frequency Localized Pulse Shape for Resolution Enhancement in STFT-BOTDR

The data is obtained from a STFT-BOTDR setup in 23/010/2015 for localization analysis in BOTDR. It is directly sampled by a ADC with 5 GSPS with 500 us width of data in each file. Three types of pulses, Rectangular, Lorentzian, Gaussian, Triangular, are used to analysis the impact of pulse shapes on resolution. Each pulse has 50ns width and 20us period. For each pulse, we have 855 files. The files are only used to get the averaged result. The data amount is quite big for the whole files, therefore, for each pulse shape, the file_001 to file_010 are uploaded. If anyone is interested to get all of the data, please contact the authors.
