Abstract
This application relates to the field of fiber-optic communication technologies, and provides a fault locating method, apparatus, and system. The method includes: obtaining a first correspondence between a receive time and receive power during reverse backhaul that occurs when a test optical signal that can be reflected by a reflection component disposed at each port of at least one stage of optical splitter is in downlink transmission in an ODN, where reverse backhaul includes backscatter and reflection or includes backscatter; determining, based on the first correspondence, a second correspondence between a transmission distance and receive power during reverse backhaul that occurs when a test optical signal is in downlink transmission in an optical fiber between each port of the at least one stage of optical splitter and a component connected to the port; and locating a fault in the ODN based on the second correspondence.
