Abstract

A waveguide estimation device includes: a time window processing unit that multiplies time-series tap coefficients of an adaptive filter by a time window function; and an estimation unit that estimates at least one of a differential group delay in a frequency series or a time series and a polarization dependent loss in a frequency series or a time series based on the time-series tap coefficients in a time window. The estimation unit may estimate at least one of the differential group delay in a frequency series or a time series and the polarization dependent loss in a frequency series or a time series based on a tap coefficient exceeding a lower limit threshold value or falling below an upper limit threshold value among the time-series tap coefficients in a time window. The estimation unit may estimate the average value of the differential group delays in a frequency series or a time series. The time window processing unit may determine the length of the time window based on a constant multiple of the average value.
