The following code is an example of how to implement the TDR algorithm in Matlab. The input to the program is the 6x3 matrix.

function [tdr_results] = tdr_826(input_matrix)


%segment = tmp(1:4:end);
peak_indx = tmp(1:3:end)
peak_indx %first column in 6x3 matrix
peak_val = tmp(2:3:end)
peak_val %second column
peak_sign = tmp(3:3:end)
peak_sign %third column


thr = 10;
prop_dly = 5.2; 
offset = 5;



flt_found = 0;
flt_loc = 0;
flt_sign = 0;



%% Process the TDR data from Segment 2 onwards
for jj = 0:3
   if peak_val(jj+1) > thr
     flt_loc = ((peak_indx(jj+1) - offset)*8)/(2*prop_dly);
     if peak_sign(jj+1) > 0
       flt_sign = 1;
     else  
       flt_sign = 0;
     end
     flt_found = 1;
     break;
   end
end

%% Process the TDR data for Segment 1..
thr_seg1_2 = 24;

if flt_found == 0
  if peak_val(5) > thr_seg1_2
    flt_loc = ((peak_indx(2) - offset)*8)/(2*prop_dly);
    if peak_sign(2) > 0
      flt_sign = 1;
    else  
      flt_sign = 0;
    end
    flt_found = 1;
  end
end  

thr_seg1_1 = 24;

if flt_found == 0
  if peak_val(6) > thr_seg1_1
    flt_loc = ((peak_indx(1) - offset)*8)/(2*prop_dly);
    if peak_sign(1) > 0
      flt_sign = 1;
    else  
      flt_sign = 0;
    end
    flt_found = 1;
  end
end 

 

%% Print the Results..
if flt_found == 1
  fprintf('\n');
  if flt_sign == 0 
    fprintf('Fault location = %6.2f; Fault = Open\n',flt_loc);
  else  
    fprintf('Fault location = %6.2f; Fault = Short\n',flt_loc);
  end
else
  fprintf('\n');
  fprintf('No Fault found\n');

end


tdr_results.flt_loc = flt_loc;
tdr_results.flt_sign = flt_sign;

return

end
