| Summary: | An optical analysis system, which is arranged to determine amplitude of a principal component of an optical signal, includes a first detector for detecting the optical signal weighted by a first spectral weighting function, and a second detector for detecting the optical signal weighted by a second spectral weighting function. For an improved signal-to-noise ratio, the optical analysis system further includes a dispersive element for spectrally dispersing the optical signal, and a distribution element for receiving the spectrally dispersed optical signal and for distributing a first part of the optical signal weighted by the first spectral weighting function to the first detector and a second part of the optical signal weighted by the second spectral weighting function to the second detector. The optical analysis system is suited for use in numerous applications including a spectroscopic analysis system and a blood analysis system. |
