Abstract

In present paper there are considered the methods for measuring the optical fiber curvature along the loose-tube optical cable. These methods are based on measurements of optical fiber backscattering characteristics on one or more wavelengths. The correctness of the methods was evaluated by the trends of excess fiber length changes with temperature during climatic test of optical cable delivery length at sub-zero temperatures. The results of tests are presented in this paper.
