Abstract
A method for generating a reflectometry signal for the diagnosis of defects impacting a transmission line or a network of transmission lines, the method executed by a diagnosis device belonging to a distributed system comprising a plurality of diagnosis devices connected to the line or network of lines, the method comprises the following steps: Generating an electrical signal comprising a plurality of frequency carriers regularly dispersed within a frequency band subdivided into sub-carriers so that each device of the distributed system uses different sub-carriers from the other devices of the system; injecting the electrical signal into the line or network of lines.
