The invention discloses an
optical fiber geometric parameter testing device and method, and belongs to the technical field of
optical fiber manufacturing. According to the testing device, a certain angle is formed between the
irradiation direction of the illumination unit and the emergent end face of the to-be-tested
optical fiber, and the illumination unit illuminates the emergent end face, so that the emergent end face is clearly imaged in the
image acquisition unit; the parameter resolving unit is used for judging the boundary of the core layer and the cladding layer according to whether the difference between the gray values of the adjacent pixel points in the end face image is larger than a preset gray threshold value or not, and therefore optical
fiber geometric parameters are deduced. According to the testing device, the imaging effect of the optical
fiber end face image is enhanced by improving the illumination unit for illuminating the optical
fiber emergent end face, and then the
algorithm for testing the optical fiber geometric parameters is improved for the end face imaging effect. Therefore, the geometrical parameters of the optical fiber can be obtained without arranging an incident
light source at the incident end of the to-be-measured optical fiber, and compared with the prior art, a series of components such as the incident
light source and an incident collimating lens are reduced, so that the complexity of the device is reduced.
