A Dynamical Theory of the Electromagnetic Field

·2011·The Scientific Papers of James Clerk Maxwell

Abstract

This specification describes a novel apparatus and method for testing optical wave guides to determine the optical attenuation and to locate faults in the optical fiber. The light for test purposes is launched into the fiber by one or more light beams that surround the wave guides and that are focussed to converge from around the circumference and at the axis of the wave guide; the convergence being at low angles of incidence, so that some of the light enters the wave guide. The remaining light launched into the wave guide in opposite directions at a location, nearer to one end than to the other, is measured at opposite ends of the wave guide. The ratio of the light at the opposite ends of the wave guide and the difference in the length of travel of the light from the region of entry to each end is used to compute attenuation. Faults are found by internal reflections of the light beam in the wave guide.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
