Abstract

It is possible to allow a user to easily distinguish between an event at a place to be resolved and an event at a place having no problem on a path of a PON communication network to be measured. A light intensity distribution of return light is processed in a time-series order to detect an event at each position on a network. A parameter Nrelating to the total number of splitters present on a path of the network is specified, the number Nof detections of the total number of splitters detected as an event is recognized, and in a case where 'N>N', a last detected event is associated with one optical splitter and is further displayed as an 'uncertain splitter' in distinction from a normal splitter.
