Research abstract
This program develops high resolution optical time domain reflectometer (OTDR) equipment for measuring fiber cable within installations having numerous short spans of fibers. This situation occurs within military aircraft and shipboard systems, which have fiber cable spans from board-to-board, within electronics boxes and from box-to-box. This technology will leverage a recently developed 2 cm resolution OTDR chipset designed for modular implementation. The modular approach allows for use with a variety of optical technologies, including 850 nm VCSEL-based, 1310 nm and C-Band (WDM) wavelengths.
