Abstract :
A simple technique is proposed that could be used to monitor the wavelengths and optical powers of WDM signals simultaneously. The proposed technique was used to monitor the wavelengths and optical powers of a 16-channel WDM system with accuracy better than ±3 GHz and ±0.4 dB, respectively
