Abstract
An algorithm is provided for a frequency domain reflectometer which takes into account both attenuation per unit length of transmission line and phase shift per unit length of transmission line in a modified Inverse Fourier Transform that converts a frequency domain complex reflection coefficient into a more accurate time domain reflection coefficient so that the distance to a fault can be readily determined.
