An experimental procedure to detect and localize defects in shielded cables is presented. First, time-domain measurements are carried out by injecting a short rise time pulse in the input section of the shielded cable. Then, the clean algorithm is applied to the measurement results to identify possible damages in the cable line. The localization of the cable section with defects is finally obtained in a very simple way due to the adopted method of measurement in time domain using a ultrawide-band pulser with a very fast rise time. The proposed method is validated by detecting and localizing known defects purposely introduced in test cables.

Abstract
An experimental procedure to detect and localize defects in shielded cables is presented. First, time-domain measurements are carried out by injecting a short rise time pulse in the input section of the shielded cable. Then, the clean algorithm is applied to the measurement results to identify possible damages in the cable line. The localization of the cable section with defects is finally obtained in a very simple way due to the adopted method of measurement in time domain using a ultrawide-band pulser with a very fast rise time. The proposed method is validated by detecting and localizing known defects purposely introduced in test cables.Pubblicazioni consigliate
