The OTDR is a device that measures distances to a reflection surface by measuring the time it takes for a lightwave pulse to reflect from the surface. Reflection surfaces include the ends of fiber cables, breaks in the fiber, splice locations, and connector locations. The ability to provide these measurements simplifies the fault location procedure for fiber systems.
The OTDR measures the scattered and reflected light returning from a pulse of transmitted light. Pulses of light are generated from the OTDR, and reflected light is displayed on the oscilloscope portion of the OTDR. Knowing the time delay of the reflected light pulse and knowing the speed light travels in the fiber determines the distance to the discontinuity of the fiber. Discontinuities or impedance changes of the fiber cable reflect light back to the OTDR. It is important to know the index of refraction of the fiber core to accurately determine distance. This setting must be correctly set on the OTDR. Keep in mind that power level is displayed on vertical axis, and distance is displayed on the horizontal axis of the screen. Abrupt changes in reflected power can represent fiber “open” conditions. The OTDR will display small losses from couplers and connectors.
The accuracy of the OTDR can be in the order of .01 dB splice seen more than 40 km (25 miles) away to within 1 meter of the problem. Loss performance of new installations is usually recorded on floppy disks and/or hard copy printouts for future
The first simulation is loss location (9, 9). Compare with last group loss location (9, 9), this test is more inaccuracy. Firstly, this test is showing very lower value that is 6dB. The inaccuracy values are appear in normal values. In last test, 25dB is approximately 80% and 26dB is approximately 60% (see Fig 12). But 25dB is above 80% and less than 40% in 26dB in this test. the lower persentage in 26dB could casue extension dB values (see Fig 18, top left). The difference between this test and last test is negative SITA results. This test could show negative results because our setting
kindly find below the information for this meters and we will take the reading next week to check and compare between analog and digital meters to get final result
Time domain reflectometer (TDR) s an electronic instrument that uses time-domain reflectomer to characterize and locate faults in metallic cables (for example, twisted wires, and coaxial cables). It can also be used to locate discontinuities in a connector, printed circuit or any other electrical path.
Measures for information transmission on fiber optic lines-can stretch out in reach up to 124 miles.
The third simulation is loss location (-9, -9). First f all, this test has error in one location. It is showing 28dB, this value is impossible. The reason is we haven't set program can detect value more than 27dB. This mistake may program error or test error. Compare with last two tests, this test is inaccuracy because many abnormal values are showing in SITA results. The normal values are higher frequency implements. The lowest has showing very abnormal value that is 14dB. This value should not possible shows in this test. The reason cause those errors may program error or test error. The reason is program using the computer vision technology, but the problem is image noise. The technology cannot guarantee all of flashlight can be detected.
Namely, determining cable types and connectors, designing connection boxes and measuring required wire lengths are some of the major milestones completed during this phase. Determining the best cable type for the application is crucial for the accuracy of the measurement system. Several tests performed at NIST confirms that widely used Teflon cables, retains charge in the Tera-Ohm range resistance measurements. Therefore, for the measurement system developed, polyethylene cables were chosen to connect resistors and equipment. Furthermore, BPO (British Post Office) coaxial cable connectors were chosen as the connection method. Precision of cables and connectors are crucial for the measurement system developed. Therefore, additional testing were done to ensure the accuracy of the cables. Furthermore, the connectors were cleaned using an Ultra Sonic cleaner to remove oil and dirt that could affect the insulation. After cleaning the connectors, insulation between the terminals of the connectors was checked using the Tera-Ohm meter system at
The colonists’ perception of the role of the British monarchy drastically changed through the 1700s and the 1800s. The Independent Reflector a passage from a magazine provides insight on the perceptions that the colonist in 1752 had. Thomas Paine’s Common Sense also gives insight of how the colonist perception had changed from previous years. The Independent Reflector was founded in 1752 and written by Edward Livingston.
“Furious at her behavior, the pimp took his abuse to a new level, crushing up a handful of hot chili peppers with his foot and stuffing them in her vagina. Then he took a hot metal rod and jammed it inside her as well. “The pain was so terrible,” she says, “I couldn’t speak.” Soon after, the client raped her” (Pesta 3). In Patricia McCormick’s book Sold, Lakshmi is treated like the girl in the example above, an object being sold and abused many times.
A few months into this program, I fell flat on my face. I had been doing well juggling the ever-growing list of assignments, until we were assigned Lab Report #1. The science concepts went over my head, resulting in false information as well as a poorly written, list-like paper with many mechanical errors and no flow. Once I received the rubric in my mailbox, I was completely devastated and disappointed in myself, this was the first time I failed. In that moment, I decided to rebound from this and not let it define my year, so I met with Mr. Mercurio and rewrote it, most of it from scratch. Recently, my rewrite appeared in my mailbox, and on it, Mr. Mercurio said, “This is a drastically improved version of your Lab Report.” Still, it
While implementing Primary Health Care models, identical to those in metropolitan areas, in a rural setting is not practical, I feel there is an obvious need to improve primary health care in remote areas. This is due to the significant health gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, in rural and remote areas

Recently, Vancouver Park Board (VPB) passed a motion to ban the use of cetaceans for entertainment or research purposes. This motion has lead to a heated debate among animal right supporters and others who believe the ban was too harsh. Some supporters of the ban use Tom Regan’s view, a philosopher who adopts the abolitionist view of animal rights, to argue that the motion is justified. Others who favour against the ban believe that the Vancouver Aquarium is an organization that helps cetaceans by research and educating the audience. In this paper, I will examine closely and proof that the supporters of the ban who adopt Regan’s stance of not viewing animals as resources and treat them with respect is not suitable as I believe Vancouver Aquarium keeps cetaceans to lead them to a greater good.
In ancient history, weapons carried more importance than they do today. Ranging from maces, javelins, axes, daggers to more technologically advanced bows and arrows, swords, spears, lances, and even sling-shots and battering rams to break into fortresses, ancient Egyptians too had a diverse portfolio of weaponry. Extending beyond as tools to slay enemies, weapons were means to domesticate wild animals, ways to express social and political status, and items to be used in religious ceremonies. Therefore, looking into the developmental history of weapons and their uses provides a unique perspective into the ancient Egyptian culture and society. Two types of weapons are to be examined as spring boards into the ancient Egyptian culture and society:
