Abstract
Utilizing the second Stokes line of the stimulated Raman scattering in a multimode, graded‐index optical fiber pumped by a 1.32‐μm Nd:YAG laser, we have first demonstrated an optical time domain reflectometry at a wavelength of 1.5 μm for a multimode fiber. As a result, the maximum detectable fault location length of 28 km was successfully obtained. The present technique is applicable to the fault location in ultralong length.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
