  • Stability performance of optical time domain reflectometer

    Stability performance of optical time domain reflectometer

    From a researcher's as well as a user's point of view, it is highly desirable to adopt a common basis for specifying optical time-domain reflectometer performance parameters. This paper proposes some procedures and test methods which permit these devices to be characterized in a consistent way. There are a variety of optical test sets that can be used to ensure quality of service (QoS) on fiber optic networks, but only the Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) supports singled ended fiber testing to characterize fibers when measuring total loss, optical return loss (ORL), latency and. We report the results of an investigation into the signal characteristics and behavior of an instrument used to calibrate Optical Time Domain Reflectometers. This instrument implements the Telecommunications Industry Association standard TIA/EIA-455-226 “External Source Method. ” Results of. Among these, the Brillouin optical time domain reflectometer (BOTDR) has attracted more and more research attention, because of its exclusive advantages, including single-end access, simple system architecture, easy implementation and widespread field applications.
