For StandardPRODML v2.0
Type:ClassStereotype:«XSDcomplexType»

Records the result arrays along with context information for an optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) survey. The arrays define the relative scattered power from the Rayleigh scattering vs. distance along the fiber. The actual data values are recorded in an OTDR file and/or image file, which are referenced in sub-elements.

Name

Type

Notes

DataInOTDRFile

String64

A reference to the external file used to record the OTDR data. Note this file will not be in an Energistics format but likely in a special OTDR format.

Direction

OTDRDirection

Enum. The direction of the OTDR survey. "Forward" means "in the same direction as the positive direction along the optical path".

DTimRun

dateTime

The dateTime of the run.

Name

String64

The name of this object.

OpticalPathDistanceEnd

LengthMeasure

The point measured along the optical path at which this OTDR survey ends.

OpticalPathDistanceStart

LengthMeasure

The point measured along the optical path at which this OTDR survey starts.

OTDRImageFile

String64

A reference to the well log used to record the table of data.

ReasonForRun

OTDRReason

The reason the OTDR test was run. Reasons include:

  • pre-installation, which is before the installation of the fiber
  • post-installation, which is used to validate a successful fiber installation
  • DTS run, a quality check of the fiber before a DTS run

Other

uid

String64

Unique identifier of this object.

Wavelength

LengthMeasure

The wavelength at which this OTDR survey was carried out.
