摘要 |
The invention relates to a method using an optical cable tracker to measure optical cable distances and an optical cable tracker, which comprises a light source, an optical coupler, a phase modulator, a delay optical fiber, and an optical signal demodulation module. In the invention, optical cables are knocked to create disturbance. Not only can the optical cable be identified based on the corresponding interference produced by the light ray in optical cables, but also the distances from knock points to the local telecommunication terminals can be estimated. This facilitates the inspection, repair and maintenance of optical cables.
