Abstract

A method of identifying a fault in an optical link comprises continually storing samples of a signal that represents a power of an optical signal received over the optical link. When a fault is detected on said optical link, at least one stored series of samples of the signal is retrieved. The method then comprises performing a classification on the retrieved series of samples, in order to classify the series of samples as resulting from one of a plurality of predefined faults.
