摘要:
An object of the invention is to provide an optical reflectometry and an optical reflectometer, in which accurate measurement can be performed irrespective of a measurement distance. In the optical reflectometry and optical reflectometer according to the invention, in which a distribution of backscattered light intensity from a measurement target in an optical propagation direction is measured using Optical Frequency Domain Reflectometry (OFDR), a coherence monitor unit 12 that monitors a coherence property of a frequency sweep light source 1 is provided, and measurement result of a measuring unit 11 is corrected based on the monitor result of the coherence monitor unit 12.
摘要:
A test pulse is generated from a first and a second test light beam pulse with different wavelengths, with a predetermined time difference applied between the first and the second test light beam pulse. A circulator inputs the test pulse to a trunk fiber of a measurement target fiber line. A reflected light is extracted which is output from an input end of the trunk fiber. A filter extracts stimulated Brillouin backscattered light. A receiver receives and converts the scattered light into an electrical signal. A processing device carries out the signal to determine in which of N branched fibers the stimulated Brillouin scattered light is generated, while varying a time difference between the first and the second test pulse.
