Abstract
An optical beam is injected into a single-mode fiber of a given length and outgoes from an end face of the fiber, is reflected by a reflecting optical system into the fiber; the optical power of the reflected beam guided backward by the fiber is measured. The end face of the fiber is placed in the optical center of the reflecting system to obtain the maximum reflected power, and is then deviated from the position detecting the occurring reductions of the reflected optical power.
