[0002] Cable impedance refers to the resistance per unit length of a transmission line when an electromagnetic signal propagates through it. Impedance is a complex number consisting of a real part, known as resistance, and an imaginary part, known as reactance. Cable impedance testing is crucial in electronic systems, communications engineering, and high-speed signal transmission, directly impacting signal integrity, system performance, and reliability.
[0003] Currently, there are various technologies and methods for measuring impedance, typically using time-domain reflectometry, vector network analyzers, and impedance analyzers. However, these commonly used methods have certain drawbacks: 1. The test equipment is expensive, with high calibration and maintenance costs; 2. The test is complex and difficult for non-professionals to perform; and 3. There are limitations on cable length and structure. Therefore, a cable impedance test system and method based on gold sample testing is urgently needed to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

[0033] Working principle: When in use, first use the test cable to connect to the connection terminal A, connection terminal B, and connection terminal C, and configure multiple types of cables in multiple channels. Then, according to the corresponding parameters of the test cable configuration, the parameters are matched to the parameter configuration module to perform parameter table statistics. Then, the multi-channel control module can control the switch modules in multiple channels according to the control software, so that the reward issuance unit issues rewards according to the current and current range of the corresponding test cable in the parameter table, so that current flows through the test cable. The sampling unit will sample the voltage after passing through the cable, and then the sampling unit will convert and transmit the parameters, so that the ADC in the sampling module reads the received transmission signal, and performs calculations and comparisons based on the signal parameters and the content recorded in the parameter table, so that the FIMV test analyzes the internal resistance and cable status of the cable. Multiple channels can perform cable testing at the same time to achieve batch testing of multiple cables.
