摘要：
We propose a simple method based on the spectrum analysis of transmission through an unbalanced Mach-Zehnder interferometer to characterize waveguide propagation loss and 2x2 waveguide coupler's coupling coefficient simultaneously. We show it is possible to determine the propagation loss and the coupling of each coupler.
