Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016156259A1] Method of characterizing a section (102) of a transmission line, a reference signal being injected into the line and a temporal measurement (301) of the reflection of said reference signal in the line being carried out, said method comprising the following steps: applying a step of deconvolution (302) to said temporal measurement so as to generate a deconvolved temporal sequence comprising a plurality of amplitude spikes each corresponding to an impedance discontinuity, eliminating (303), in the amplitude of at least one spike obtained, the contribution of at least one secondary reflection of the signal on an impedance discontinuity, deducing, from the temporal position of each spike, a position of an associated impedance discontinuity in said line section, deducing (304), from the amplitude of each spike, an estimate of the real part of the reflection coefficient of a wave reflected on each impedance discontinuity identified.
