title: Simplified calibration strategy for an optical six-port reflectometer.
abstract: A simplified calibration strategy is presented to calibrate a recently proposed optical frequency domain six-port reflectometer for measuring dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) devices. The calibration technique only requires three calibration standards that can be easily obtained. Realistic simulation results of a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) measurement show that excellent accuracy can be obtained with this technique.
