Abstract

See full text

A non-contacting method of measuring the electrical resistance per unit length of a filament, such as a carbon-coated optical fibre, makes the filament the inner conductor of a co-axial transmission line and measures a propagation characteristic of that line. The transmission line may be divided into seven sections, with a signal injected on the second section, and a comparison of the resulting signals appearing on the fourth and sixth sections being used in a feedback loop to control the injected signal frequency in such a way as to hold constant either the relative amplitudes or the relative phases of the signals appearing at the fourth and sixth sections.
