High-Resolution Fiber Reflectometry for Avionics Applications
Short Summary
We introduce a tunable-laser-based technique for sub-millimeter resolution fiber reflectometry. We show how the technique is used to locate bends, breaks, bad splices and poor connections in short-haul single- and multimode fiber links.
