Abstract
A system for monitoring the state of a cable, includes a plurality of transferometry devices capable of injecting a test signal into the cable and measuring a signal being propagated in the cable, the transferometry devices being positioned along the cable so as to break down the cable into successive sections, the system comprising a control member capable of communicating with the transferometry devices and configured so as to perform at least one transferometry test consisting in injecting a test signal into the cable by means of a first transferometry device and measuring the test signal after its propagation in the cable by means of a second transferometry device different from the first device, the system comprising a post-processing member capable of communicating with the transferometry devices and configured to compare the measured signal to a reference signal to deduce therefrom an indicator of degradation of the section of cable disposed between the first transferometry device and the second transferometry device.
