6-14
IM AQ6376-01EN
Explanation
The following configuration is used to measure WDM transmission signals.
Multi-channel light source
AQ6376
MUX
Optical amplifier
Measure the WDM signal light and write the waveform to the active trace.
Setting Analysis Parameters
The WDM analysis function parameters may be broadly divided into the following three
configurations.
Parameter settings may be changed as desired according to the details of the particular
analysis.
• Parameters related to channel detection (CHANNEL DETECTION SETTING)
• Parameters related to noise level measurement (INTERPOLATION SETTING)
• Parameters related to analysis results display method (DISPLAY SETTING)
These are explained below. See appendix 4, “WDM Analysis Function” for a description
of the parameters.
