Abstract: A novel Brillouin optical time-domain reflectometer using an adaptive frequency analysis (AFA) algorithm enhances spatial resolution by 2.5 times at 10 MHz frequency resolution compared to ...

A time domain reflectometer (TDR) measures reflections along a cable. It is similar in principle to radar. To measure those reflections, the TDR transmits an incident signal into the cable and watches ...

Atomic clocks record time using microwaves to measure the frequency of quantum vibrations of electrons. They are the basis upon which a second is defined. But there’s a new kid on the block, the ...

In this look at transmission line theory, we will assume an RG-58 type of coaxial cable which has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω. Where we let C stand for the capacitance per unit length, 30 pF ...

Coherent Corp., a leader in photonics, has introduced a new embedded Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (eOTDR) in a QSFP package designed for advanced fiber network diagnostics. This device boasts a ...

Abstract: The improved performance of an optical time-domain reflectometer (OTDR) through the application of a correlation technique using codes with complementary autocorrelation properties is ...

Photonic space-time crystals are materials that could increase the performance and efficiency of wireless communication or laser technologies. They feature a periodic arrangement of special materials ...

Time Machine, the built-in backup tool in macOS, provides a straightforward and reliable way to protect your valuable data. Whether you’re safeguarding critical work files, cherished family photos, or ...
