Method to compensate dispersion effect applied to time domain reflectometry

Abstract: A new post-processing approach which aims at reducing the dispersion effect of the wave travelling inside a waveguide is presented. The main objective is to improve the time domain reflectometry measurements performed over long-distance cables, relative to the wavelength λ. A real-case scenario is presented so that the gain of this method can be appreciated.Introduction: Cables are present in almost all modern systems. These cables are subject to several electrical, chemical and mechanical stresses. Depending … Show more

“…We note that the post-processing improves the fault location, and the relative error is equal to 0%. Now, let's take the same example, with 2000 m instead of 500 m. If we look at the location of the peak maximum of the curve (Figure 5), we find 2177 m for the reflectogram without dispersion Furthermore, we make a comparison with the dynamic cross-correlation method proposed by [6]. For the same cable model (2000 m length), we find 2004 m (relative error 0.2%) with the new approach and 2073 m (relative error 3.7%) with the dynamic cross-correlation method.…”

“…In order to overcome the drawbacks of the TDR method, the chirp signal that has characteristics in both the time and frequency domains is used to obtain robustness under the noise environment [10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. The TFDR adopted a linear chirp signal.…”

“…Over the last decade, reflectometry-based methods—such as time domain reflectometry (TDR), frequency domain reflectometry (FDR), and (joint) time–frequency domain reflectometry (TFDR)—have been introduced as effective methods for cable diagnostics [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ]. TDR uses an impulse signal as an incident signal and analyzes the reflected signal to diagnose and locate faults in the time domain.…”
