Abstract
A method for determining characteristics of a test cavity, the method includes for each of a plurality of optical frequencies within a bandwidth of a tunable laser, measuring interference signals from the test cavity and a reference cavity having a known characteristic. The method includes determining values for the plurality of optical frequencies from the measured interference signals from the reference cavity and the known characteristic of the reference cavity, and determining the characteristic of the test cavity using the determined values of the plurality of optical frequencies.
