Abstract

A single ended line testing method for qualifying an electrically conducting line, including the steps of sending a plurality of randomized excitation signals from a first end of the line towards a second end of the line, subsequently taking measurements, at the first end of the line, of each reflection of the plurality of randomized excitation signals, and then inversely randomizing the measurements. Line qualification is determined based on an average of the inversely randomized measurements.
