Correction table for interferometric optical signal-to-noise ratio monitor

摘要

The present disclosure includes a computer-implemented method of correcting a measured optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR) comprising receiving an optical signal and measuring OSNR of the optical signal using an interferometric OSNR monitor device. The method also includes applying a correction table to the measured OSNR to generate a corrected OSNR using a controller, the correction table comprising a correction function to counteract an artifact in the measured OSNR. The method also includes storing the corrected OSNR in a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The present disclosure also includes associated devices applying the correction table and methods of generating the correction table.
