Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to the field of fiber optic communication, and more specifically, to optical time domain reflectometer apparatuses used for testing the integrity of a communication channel. Due to its high bandwidth, low dispersion, low attenuation, and immunity to electromagnetic interference among other advantages single-mode and multimode optical fibers are the standard transmission media used for intermediate and long reach high-speed communication applications in data centers, enterprise networks, metropolitan area networks (MANs), and long haul systems. Optical channels often contain other passive elements such as optical connectors, adapters, patch cords, splitters, combiners, and filters.

Claim (Index 1):
A correlation optical time-domain reflectometer that utilizes at least two interleaved correlation codes transmitted in the same sequence to produce noise cancellation of spurious reflected signals than may occur during optical channel measurements.
