Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of communication, in particular to a DSP-based optical time domain reflectometer. Background technique [0002] At present, with the continuous development of optical communication, an important branch of optical communication - Optical Fiber Communications (Optical Fiber Communications) is gradually replacing cables and microwave communications due to its advantages of wide transmission frequency bandwidth, high anti-interference and low signal attenuation. It has become the main transmission method in the world communication. Optical fiber communication is a communication method that uses light waves as a carrier and optical fiber as a transmission medium to transmit information from one place to another. It is called "wired" optical communication. Therefore, the performance of optical fiber directly affects the speed and distance of optical signal transmission. Lightning, earthquakes, and constructions ...

Problems solved by technology

However, the existing optical time domain reflectometers often have low transmission accuracy and poor anti-interference ability, and the traditional OTDR is aimed at the point-to-point structure, which brings inconvenience to fault location and branch transmission detection. Aiming at the above problems, a special Optical Time Domain Reflectometer Based on DSP
