Abstract :
In this paper, the studies of finding the failure location on a sample cable by using the pulse reflection method and the effects of parameters resulting from the fault on the results of the measurement have been examined. A pulse generator with amplitude of 5 V and pulse width between 40 ns and 2000 ns has been designed as a novel pulse reflection meter. The images of reflection seen on the oscilloscope screen have been transferred to software of ANALYSIS, developed for measurement of pulse reflection by means of serial communication and have been examined here.
