Agilent 86038B Photonic Dispersion and Loss Analyzer, Second Edition
Zero dispersion slope uncertainty
Specifies the uncertainty of the measurement results for
dispersion slope" , expressed as the maximum difference
between the measured value and actual value.
Conditions: valid for measurements on fibers. Zero dispersion
slope derived from a suitable fit (quadratic or Sellmeier) to the
chromatic dispersion data measured around the zero dispersion
wavelength. Measured wavelength range for fitting as specified.
Wavelength increment as specified. Other conditions: same as
for "Relative group delay (rGD)"
