Loss analysis device and loss analysis method

Abstract

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a loss analysis device and a loss analysis method of detecting an event with high reproducibility when an SN ratio is small or when an event interval is short. According to the present disclosure, a loss analysis device includes an OTDR waveform acquisition unit that acquires an OTDR waveform of a measurement target optical fiber, and a calculation unit that performs nonlinear fitting of an event model function to the OTDR waveform and calculates a position of a start point of each event included in the OTDR waveform, a level at the start point of each event, a loss of each event, and a return loss of each event, the event model function using the position, the level, the loss, and the return loss as parameters.
