MEASURING METHOD OF HOLE DIAMETER, HOLE POSITION, HOLE SURFACE ROUGHNESS, OR BENDING LOSS OF HOLEY OPTICAL FIBER, MANUFACTURING METHOD OF HOLEY OPTICAL FIBER, AND TEST METHOD OF OPTICAL LINE OF HOLEY OPTICAL FIBER

摘要

A measuring method of a hole diameter of a holey optical fiber includes calculating an arithmetical mean value I(x) from two backscattering light intensities at a position x of two backscattering light waveforms of the holey optical fiber, in which the two backscattering light waveforms are obtained by OTDR measurement; and obtaining the hole diameter at the position x, based on a correlation between an arithmetical mean value I(x) and an hole diameter of the holey optical fiber that is obtained in advance.
