Abstract:
An optical signal-to-noise ratio measurement device includes a measurement unit and a determination unit and measures an optical signal-to-noise ratio of an optical signal including a fixed pattern in a specified cycle. The measurement unit measures an optical signal-to-noise ratio of the optical signal respectively in a plurality of time sections in a measurement period so as to generate a plurality of measured values, a length of the measurement period being the same or substantially the same as a length of the specified cycle. The determination unit selects, from the plurality of measured values generated by the measurement unit, at least one measured value other than a worst measured value in the plurality of measured values, and determines an optical signal-to-noise ratio of the optical signal based on the selected at least one measured value.

Claim (Index 3):
The optical signal-to-noise ratio measurement device according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the measurement unit measures an optical signal-to-noise ratio of the optical signal in two of the plurality of time sections in the measurement period so as to obtain two measured values, and the determination unit outputs, as an optical signal-to-noise ratio of the optical signal, a measured value representing better characteristics from among the two measured values obtained by the measurement unit.
