Time-domain reflectometer for cable fault detection. A time-domain reflectometer ( TDR) is an electronic instrument used to determine the characteristics of electrical lines by observing reflected pulses . It can be used to characterize and locate faults in metallic cables (for example, twisted pair wire or coaxial cable ), [ 1] and to locate ...
Spread-spectrum time-domain reflectometry ( SSTDR) is a measurement technique to identify faults, usually in electrical wires, by observing reflected spread spectrum signals. This type of time-domain reflectometry can be used in various high-noise and live environments. Additionally, SSTDR systems have the additional benefit of being able to ...
A TDR moisture sensor employs time-domain reflectometry (TDR) to measure moisture content indirectly based on the correlation to electric and dielectric properties of materials, such as soil, agrarian products, snow, wood or concrete . Measurement usually involves inserting a sensor into the substance to be tested and then applying either ...
An OTDR. An optical time-domain reflectometer ( OTDR) is an optoelectronic instrument used to characterize an optical fiber. It is the optical equivalent of an electronic time domain reflectometer which measures the impedance of the cable or transmission line under test. An OTDR injects a series of optical pulses into the fiber under test and ...
Pile integrity testing using low-strain tests such as the TDR (Transient Dynamic Response) method, is a rapid way of assessing the continuity and integrity of concrete piled foundations. The test measures: pile length, or depth to anomalies. pile head stiffness. pile shaft mobility, which is dependent on pile section and concrete properties.
Timeout Detection and Recovery or TDR is a feature of the Windows operating system (OS) introduced in Windows Vista. It detects response problems from a graphics card (GPU), and if a timeout occurs, the OS will attempt a card reset to recover a functional and responsive desktop environment. However, if the attempt was unsuccessful, it results ...
Demonstration of firing. The concept of a conventional tactical ballistic missile was made possible by the doctrinal shift of the late Cold War, which rejected the indispensability of an early nuclear strike on the Warsaw Pact forces in the event the Cold War went hot. [10]
Trustworthy Repositories Audit & Certification. Trustworthy Repositories Audit & Certification (TRAC) is a document describing the metrics of an OAIS -compliant digital repository that developed from work done by the OCLC / RLG Programs and National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) task force initiative.
