Abstract
Results of studying an original method of the modulated optical radiation spectrum analysis and testing a simple detector based on the Fabry–Perot interferometer are reported. The theoretical analysis of detector operation is compared with model experiment results. A possibility of using this analyzer for measuring the characteristics of ultrahigh-frequency modulators of optical radiation operating at modulation frequencies from 10 to 100 GHz and higher is noted.
