Abstract:
The present invention relates to an optical time domain reflectometer using, as a optical source, a polymer wavelength tunable laser which tunes the wavelength of an optical signal by using polymer grating. The optical time domain reflectometer of the present invention tunes the wavelength of a polymer wavelength tunable laser that outputs a constant optical signal and inspects cutting, reflection, and damage of an optical line by separating an optical signal returning from the optical line by an optical filter having a specific central wavelength. Since a optical source having a constant light intensity is used, the present invention has an effect of reducing the nonlinear effect generated in an optical line.

Claim (Index 10):
An optical time domain reflectometer, comprising:\n a wavelength-tunable laser; and a controller configured to output a control signal for tuning an operating wavelength of the wavelength-tunable laser, wherein the wavelength-tunable laser outputs an optical signal having a wavelength that varies with time in response to the control signal.
