Abstract
The purpose of this invention is to provide an optical pulse testing method and optical pulse testing device capable of measuring the loss at an end farther than an axially misaligned connection point at which inter-mode crosstalk occurs independently from the crosstalk value at the point. In this optical pulse testing method, a matrix (loss and crosstalk) representing the mode coupling at a near-end connection point is calculated, and an OTDR waveform having the effects of crosstalk eliminated therefrom is obtained by numerical processing using the calculated matrix representing the mode coupling.
