### Why haven't you used fiber reflectometry to measure fiber lengths?

|
|

|
We avoided using reflectometry to calibrate our delays for the following
|
|
|
|
consideration:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Commercial reflectometers are known to be accurate at the ~10ns
|
|
|
|
level, whereas we know that our internal delay chain is stable at
|
|
|
|
the ~1ns level.
|
|
|
|
2. Lab tests show that swapping the transmitter and receiver over a
|
|
|
|
~5Km optical fibber roll induces a change in the delay at the order
|
|
|
|
of 0.1ns. Sagnac effects over an extended 10Km fibber would add an
|
|
|
|
additional asymmetry of only ~0.1ns on the earth equator. This means
|
|
|
|
that a simple two-way scheme over an spare fibber has the potential
|
|
|
|
to do a time-transfer between two points separated by 10Km with ~1ns
|
|
|
|
accuracy.
|
|
|
|
3. Delay paths should include as many components as possible in order
|
|
|
|
to reduce any systematic error.
