Abstract
A method and a system for characterization of optical components through characterized decomposition of an optical device includes: directing incident light over a range of wavelengths to a device under test, wherein the incident light includes a primary signal and at least one sideband signal, the distance between the primary signal and any one of the sideband signals is substantially larger than the width of the band pass area of the device under test; detecting output light from the device under test to obtain a detected signal; correcting the detected signal to account errors associated with the sideband signal.
