Abstract
(EN)
The present invention relates to an apparatus and to a method of polarization dependent analyzing an optical signal (6) transmitted through a DUT (10), comprising the steps of: splitting the optical signal (6) into a first signal part (16) having an initial first polarization and a second signal part (20) having an initial second polarization, coding the first signal part (16) using a first code (17, code 1) and coding the second signal part (20) using a second code (17, code 2), providing the coded signal parts (16, 6a, 20, 6b, 6c, 6d) to the DUT (10), detecting a DUT signal (32) coming from the DUT (10) in response to the coded signal parts (16, 6a, 20, 6b, 6c, 6d), and determining a first part (a, c) of the DUT signal (32) corresponding to the first signal part (16) by means of the first code ( 17, code 1) and determining a second part (b, d) of the DUT signal (32) corresponding to the second signal part (20) by means of the second code (17, code 2).
(FR)
L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant d'analyser un signal optique (6) émis à travers un dispositif à l'essai (DUT) (10), en fonction de la polarisation. Le procédé selon l'invention comprend les étapes consistant à : diviser le signal optique (6) en une première composante de signal (16) présentant une première polarisation de départ, ainsi qu'en une deuxième composante de signal (20) présentant une deuxième polarisation de départ ; coder la première composante de signal (16) au moyen d'un premier code (17, code 1) et coder la deuxième composante de signal (20) au moyen d'un deuxième code (17, code 2) ; entrer les composantes de signal codées (16, 6a, 20, 6b, 6c, 6d) dans le DUT (10) ; détecter un signal DUT (32) généré par ledit DUT (10) en réponse auxdites composantes de signal codées (16, 6a, 20, 6b, 6c, 6d) ; et déterminer une première composante (a, c) du signal DUT (32) correspondant à ladite première composante de signal (16) au moyen dudit premier code (17, code 1) et déterminer une deuxième composante (b, d) du signal DUT (32) correspondant à ladite deuxième composante de signal (20) au moyen dudit deuxième code (17, code 2).
