    Abstract: A device and method for line impedance measurement using a multi-frequency test signal waveform in a signal injection technique featuring analysis of acquired line test response data. A multi-frequency test signal waveform is injected into the susbscriber line, to obtain by data acquisition the line response in terms of voltage measurements, which are processed via a digital filter to analyze a specific sine wave frequency. For example, if a multi-level rectangular wave signal is used as the test signal, it does not necessarily have a symmetrical waveform, and the analysis may be made at the dominant frequency derived from the rectangular wave, or other harmonics. For the frequency chosen for the analysis, it is possible to derive the line characteristics, including amplitude attenuation and phase shift, which constitute the line impedance.
