Abstract

An interferometer system is used to detect a wavelength of an unknown signal. The interferometer system includes a fringe pattern detection system and a power detecting system. The fringe pattern detection system measures an interference fringe pattern of the unknown signal. The power detecting system measures relative power of the unknown signal before the unknown signal enters the fringe pattern detection system. The relative power of the unknown signal is used to compensate for modulation within the unknown signal.
