A method and system for calibrating an interferometric optical network analyzer is disclosed. Specifically, a plurality of interferometric measurements for a control optical element using first polarized lightwaves of a first amplitude and second polarized lightwaves of a second amplitude are received in accordance with the invention. Next, a calibration result is derived using the plurality of interferometric measurements in accordance with the present invention. With this calibration result, the optical properties of a device under test (DUT) measured using the first polarized lightwaves of the first amplitude and the second polarized lightwaves of the second amplitude can be determined with reduced uncertainty due to intrinsic optical characteristics of the interferometric optical network analyzer.
