Operating Principle
1. Operating Principle
As light is transmitting in optical fiber, small fluctuation of
fiber
’
s refractive index may cause Rayleigh scattering, and
abrupt change on refractive index of fiber end or fault point
may result in Fresnel reflection. It may ascertain the loss
distribution and splice loss, etc. Through observing optical
power of Rayleigh backward scattering, also may ascertain
the break point and fault point, etc. of optical fiber by
observing Fresnel reflection.
2. Description of Event Point Type
Event type on the trace of tested optical fiber generally
includes reflective event and non-reflective event.
Reflective event, appears as a peak, usually is caused by
the fracture plane of fixed connector or fiber end. See the
following figure.
Non-reflective event generally includes: (shown as the
following figure)
