Title:
WAVELENGTH CHRACTERISTICS MEASURING DEVICE AND METHOD USING LIGHT HAVING WAVELENGTH THEREOF CONTINUOUSLY CHANGED
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2002/088660
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A wavelength-variable light source emits to a measurement object light having its wavelength continuously changed from predetermined start wavelength to stop wavelength. A timing information output unit generates a plurality of elements of timing information indicating the output timings of lights respectively having a start wavelength, a stop wavelength and a plurality of wavelengths obtained by dividing the interval between the start and step wavelengths by specified steps. A light receiving unit receives light from the measurement object and outputs a signal representing the measurement value of the received light. A plurality of amplifiers receive a signal from the light receiving unit and amplify the signal at respective specified amplification ratios. A signal selection unit selects one signal within a specified measuring range out of signals amplified at respective amplification ratios by the amplifiers and outputs it as a measurement value by light having a wavelength defined by applicable timing information in the plurality of elements of timing information from the timing information output unit.
