Optical Vector Analysis
Luna Technologies' Optical Vector Analyzer™ (OVA) is the first instrument on the market capable of full and complete all-parameter linear characterization of single-mode optical components. The OVA provides comprehensive component characterization of Fiber Bragg Gratings, dispersion compensation modules, AWGs and many other optical devices. A complete vector measurement of the linear transfer function is used to characterize the device under test.
The OVA can simultaneously perform the following optical measurements, updated every second:
Insertion Loss (IL)
Optical Return Loss (ORL)
Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL)
Phase Response
Group Delay (GD)
Chromatic Dispersion
Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) & Second Order PMD (SOPMD)
Min / Max Loss due to Polarization
Jones Matrix Elements
Impulse Response
Phase Ripple - Linear and Quadratic
