2. Basic Knowledge of OTDR
Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) is a precision optical fiber measurement instrument made by using the
principle of back-scattering generated by Rayleigh scattering and Fresnel reflection when laser light is transmitted in
optical fiber. It measures the transit time of a light pulse back and forth, use the formula
L=c×t/(2n) to calculate the distance L, the unit of L is m, c is the propagation speed of light in vacuum 2.99792×
108m/s, t is return light pulse (the unit is s ), where n is the refractive index, specified by the fiber manufacturer, and
divided by 2 in the formula because the round-trip time is measured.
When light is transmitted in an optical fiber, due to the in-homogeneity of the optical fiber doping composition or
the defects of the optical fiber link itself, the optical pulse propagating in the optical fiber undergoes Rayleigh
scattering, and part of the optical signal will be scattered in the opposite direction of the pulse incidence. Back, it is
called back Rayleigh scattering. By regularly observing the changes of Rayleigh back-scattered light signal intensity,
the loss distribution and connection quality of optical fibers and cables can be accurately measured.
According to the light transmission theory, when light encounters the boundary of two transmission media with
different refractive indices (such as a flexible connector, a break or an optical fiber termination) during the propagation
process, the Fresnel reflection phenomenon will occur. Timed reception of the nel-reflected signal enables accurate
location of discontinuities along the length of the fiber. The magnitude of the reflection depends on the refractive index
difference and the flatness of the boundary surface.
An OTDR tested event is an anomalous point that causes a sudden change in loss or reflected power. Including
5
various connection points, fusion points and bending, cracking or breaking positions in the optical fiber link that lead
to the loss of transmission signals, mainly divided into reflection events and non-reflection events.
（1）Reflective event
When the laser pulse sent by the OTDR is transmitted along the fiber under test,
if it encounters an active connection point or the end of the fiber, reflection will
occur due to the sudden change of the refractive index, and part of the optical
signal will return to the instrument along the fiber under test. The instrument will
detect this reflection event by accepting this reflection signal. On the OTDR test
curve, it appears as an upward spike signal with a certain width. The width and
amplitude of the spike are mainly determined by the pulse width used for the test
and the reflection intensity that occurs.
（2）Non-reflective event
When the laser pulse emitted by the OTDR is transmitted along the fiber under
test, if it encounters a position where the energy is partially lost, such as a fusion
point or bending, the reflection phenomenon will not occur because there is no
sudden change in the refractive index. , or can be ignored.
The OTDR detects the energy change difference entering the OTDR receiver
through backscattering, and can detect the non-reflection event parameters at this point. A non-reflection event appears

6
as a signal with a drop in energy on the OTDR curve, and the magnitude of the drop indicates power loss.
（3）Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is an important parameter of optical time domain reflectometry,
measured in dB. This parameter is expressed as the maximum optical loss that the
OTDR can analyze from the back-scatter level at the output port of the instrument
down to a specific noise level. In actual use, this parameter is usually measured by
the farthest distance that the OTDR can test under the condition of the maximum
test pulse width provided by the instrument. Therefore, under the same link
conditions, the larger the dynamic range, the longer the distance of the fiber optic
link that the instrument can test. The maximum test distance of an OTDR is different in different applications, and
connectors, fusion splices, and optical splitters are also factors that reduce the test
length of an OTDR.
（4）Event Blind Zone and Attenuation Blind Zone
There are places in the link that cannot be measured due to tie points or connectors.
The OTDR blind area is divided into event blind area and attenuation blind area,
which is generated by Fresnel reflection and expressed in distance (meters) that varies
with the reflected power.
Event Blind Zone: The shortest distance between the detection of Fresnel reflection signal and the recognition of

7
the next Fresnel reflection signal by OTDR is defined by the pulse width less than 1.5dB of the peak value.
Attenuation Blind Zone: The shortest distance that OTDR goes through from detecting Fresnel reflection signal to
normal testing backward Rayleigh scattering signal, that is, the phase cannot measure fusion loss due to adjacent large
reflection.
（5）Splice Loss
The OTDR tests the distance and loss between specified points. This series OTDR
mainly use the 4-point marking method:
Measurement start point A, splice loss start point B, splice loss end point C, and
measurement end point D. The splice loss is calculated by the level difference
between the approximate line between B-A and the approximate line between C-D
where the marker B is located. Please place marker B at the exact position. The
splice loss value depends heavily on the position of B, the measured loss value
between marks depends on the specified approximation method.
(6)Return Loss (RL)
RL is the ratio of reflected light Pr to incident light Pi in dB. Using the formula RL=-10log (Pr/Pi), the greater the
echo loss, the smaller the reflected light energy, indicating that the better the measured light path.

5. Common problems and Solutions
5.1 How to observe the optical pulse
waveform?
Pulsed light emitted by OTDR injects into
different locations of the measured optical
fiber links, which can cause loss, such as
connection points, bends and end of the optical
fiber. The measurement results will be shown
in the trace waveform, in which the horizontal
axis represents the test distance, the
longitudinal axis represents the loss power, and in the waveform, the
measured loss or reflection is expressed in the event.
Near-end reflection: Reflection occurring at the junction between OTDR
and the connector of the optical cable. This also includes the internal
reflection of the instrument, the loss and reflection between the connecting
points cannot be detected in the near-end reflective area.

52
 Splice loss: Due to the uneven density of the welded parts or the change of material quality, the increase of Rayleigh
scattering loss results in the welding loss.
Reflection of Connector: There is a small gap in the connecting part of the connector, and the group refractive
index of the gap changes, so the reflection occurs and causes loss.
Fresnel reflection at the end of the cable: Fresnel reflection occurs at the break-point of the cable or at the
position where the group refractive index changes at the end of the cable (glass and air). When the end face of the
optical fiber is vertical, the power reflection of the incident light is about 3%(-14.7dB).
（1）Normal Curve
As shown on the right, how to judge whether the curve is normal or not?
① The main slope of the curve is basically the same, and the slope is
smaller, which indicates that the attenuation constant of the line is higher
than that of the line Small, good uniformity of attenuation.
②There is no obvious "step", which indicates that the quality of line joints
is better.
③ The tail reflection peak is higher, which indicates that the distal
end-forming quality is better.

53
（2）Curves Have Large Steps
If there is an obvious "step" in the
lower right figure, if this is the joint, it
means that the joint is not qualified or
that the bending radius of the optical
fiber is too small or squeezed in the
fused disc; if this is not the joint, it
means that the optical cable is squeezed
or sharply bent here.
（3）High Slope of Curve
As in the upper right figure, the slope of this section is obviously larger,
which indicates that the quality of this section of optical fiber is not good and
the loss is large.
（4）No reflection peak at the far end of the curve
As shown in the lower right figure, there is no reflection peak at the tail of the
curve, which indicates that the quality of the distal end of the optical fiber is not
good or that the distal end of the optical fiber is broken here.

54
（5）Recognition and Processing of Mirage Peak (Ghost)
Recognition of phantom peaks (ghosts): The
ghosts on the curve do not cause obvious loss
(such as the upper right figure); the distance
between the ghosts and the beginning of the
curve is a multiple of the distance between the
strong reflection event and the beginning, which
is symmetrical (such as the lower right figure).
Eliminate phantom peak (ghost): select short
pulse width, increase attenuation in strong reflection front end (such as OTDR output). If the event causing ghost is
located at the end of the optical fiber, it can "bend" to attenuate the light reflected back to the beginning.
（6） Positive Gain Phenomenon Processing
Positive gain may occur on the OTDR curve, as shown in the right figure.
Positive gain is due to more backward astigmatism produced by the fibers after the
fusion point than those before the fusion point. In fact, the optical fibers have a
loss at this fusion point. It often occurs in the fusion process of optical fibers with
different mode field diameters or back-scattering coefficients. Therefore, it is
necessary to measure the fusion loss in two directions and take the average of the
results as the fusion loss.
55
5.2 How to clean the optical output interface of OTDR?
The optical output interface of OTDR series is replaceable universal interface, which must be kept clean during use.
When the instrument is unable to test the normal curve or the test results are inaccurate, the first consideration is to
clean the optical interface of the instrument.
Specific cleaning methods: unscrew the output interface, wipe the end face of ceramic core with clean cotton sheets
or special paper towels and cotton swabs wetted by alcohol, and then screw the output interface after the end alcohol
evaporates.
Tip 1: When cleaning, make sure that both
OTDR and VFL functions are stopped!
Tip 2: In the normal use of the instrument,
please cover the dust cap after it is finished, and
keep the dust cap clean at the same time!
5.3 How to copy the internal documents of the
instrument to the U disk or computer?

Copy to U disk: Insert the U disk into the USB

port on the top of the instrument, select the file,
click [Copy] to copy the file, select the root

56
directory to be copied, and click [Paste] to copy the file.
Note: The file management of each function module can perform operations such as opening, copying, and
deleting the file format saved by this function. In the file management of the system, operations such as copying
and deleting files of all functional modules can be performed, but files such as SOR cannot be viewed.
Copy to computer: Use the data cable included in the box to connect to the computer through the Type-C port, turn
on the Type-C switch on the instrument, and map the instrument as an external storage device on the computer. Enter
the external storage device on the computer side, you can create new folders, copy, delete files and other operations.
Note: Do not copy irrelevant big data into the instrument (such as video, etc.)
5.4 How to print test trace in batch?
Step 1: Copy the analytical software "Analyse_Otdr" from U disk to the computer.
Step 2: Click on File - [Batch Processing] to select the Storage Directory and view all the files.
Step 3: Add files to the printing area, determine the type of printing, and perform the printing operation.
5.5 How to print test trace into PDF report?
