Résumé

Optical fiber cables deployed in the last 30 years have been considered to be long-lived components due to the generally high level of reliability of glass and the robustness of cable construction. Like all other components however, optical cables can change with age as a result of their construction or deployment characteristics as well as operational and environmental stress factors. In this paper, we apply a time-series decomposition method on span loss data collected during 12 months in four bidirectional spans of a production network in order to detect long-term degradation of the fiber plant. After extracting the trend component, a Mann-Kendall test is applied to the span loss curves and a Sen's slope estimator test is used for determining the magnitude of span loss change. The method al-lows detecting a 1.3 % increase in span loss over the 12-month period of observation in one of the fiber spans. This trend is confirmed using a linear regression model computed according to Theil Sen method applied to additional one-year data. The proposed method can allow the early detection of fiber plant degradation and the proactive planning of fiber replacement.
