1. Introduction 

OTDR is a precise optical measuring instrument made according to the backscatter principle of Rayleigh scattering and Fresnel reflection when the transmission of laser in the optical fiber. It can be widely used in the installation and construction, maintenance and repair and monitoring application of optical fiber and fiber cables. It can be used to measure the length, attenuation, connection quality and fault location of optical fibers and cables, etc..

When transmission of light in the optical fiber, the optical pulses in the optical fiber transmission will generate Rayleigh scattering due to the defects of optical fiber and non-uniformity of the mixed components. Of which, a part of light signal will be scattered back along the direction opposite to the incident pulse, therefore, it is called backward Rayleigh scattering. Through observing the intensity changes of backward Rayleigh scattering light signal, the loss distribution, connection quality and other features of optical fibers and cables can be accurately measured. Besides, according to the theory of optical transmission, when the light encounters the boundary of the two transmission media of different refractive indices in the transmission process (for example, connectors, mechanical connection, fracture or optical fiber termination points), Fresnel reflection phenomenon may occur. Through receiving the Fresnel reflection signal on regular basis, the position of the discontinuity points along the length of the optical fiber can be accurately determined. The size of reflection depends on the refractive index difference and boundary surface flatness.

2. Description of the OTDR test event type

OTDR test event refers to the abnormal points that may cause loss or a sudden change in the reflected power, including various types of connection and bending, cracks or fracture in the fiber link, which may cause the transmission signal loss.

The OTDR test events are mainly divided into two types: reflection events and non-reflective events.

2.1 Reflective event

When the laser pulse emitted from OTDR is transmitted along the measured optical fiber, which encounters a mechanical connection point or the end of the optical fiber, reflection phenomenon will occur due to the change of the refractive index, and some of the light energy will return along the optical fiber to the instrument. Through receiving this reflected signal, the instrument will detect this reflection event, which will be presented as upward spike signal of a certain width in the curve. The width of the spike is mainly determined by the width of the tested pulse, as shown in Fig. 2-1.
