Abstract

An optical fiber characteristic measurement device () includes a photodetector (A) which detects Brillouin scattered light (LS) obtained by causing light to be incident on an optical fiber (FUT), an intensity acquisitor (A) which acquires a signal intensity at a prescribed reference frequency (f, f) from a detection signal (S, S, S) output from the photodetector, and a measurer (A,B) which measures characteristics of the optical fiber by obtaining a peak frequency of a Brillouin gain spectrum, which is a spectrum of the Brillouin scattered light, from the signal intensity at the reference frequency acquired by the intensity acquisitor.
