ABSTRACT:
A method for measuring fault locations in high frequency cables and lines. A signal with the frequency f0 and a level a0 is emitted from the source. This signal is split up in the splitter and is routed to the same parts in the test piece (DUT=device under test) and to a sink. The signals of the source and the returning wave of the DUT are added, whereby the result of this addition is a signal with the frequency f0 and an amplitude a1. The value of the frequency f0 is changed, and the amplitude of the newly generated sum signal is, in turn, recorded. An inverse Fourier transformation transforms the signals from the frequency domain into the time domain. The transition point, which appears as the defined peak in the time diagram can thereby be located.
