An optical property measurement apparatus includes a pulse formation unit, a waveform measurement unit, and an optical system. The pulse formation unit is capable of changing a temporal waveform of pulsed light in accordance with a type of optical property to be measured. The waveform measurement unit measures a temporal waveform of the pulsed light output from a measurement object after being incident on the measurement object. The optical system has an attenuation unit with an attenuation rate with respect to one wavelength component constituting the pulsed light larger than an attenuation rate with respect to another wavelength component constituting the pulsed light. The optical system is capable of switching between a first state in which the attenuation unit is arranged on an optical path of the pulsed light output from the measurement object and a second state in which the attenuation unit is not arranged on the optical path.

The present application relates to a light pulse signal processing system. A to-be-measured signal light source generates a to-be-measured signal light pulse, and the to-be-measured signal light pulse is transmitted to a cylindrical lens. The to-be-measured signal light pulse is converted into a to-be-measured signal light pulse having a spatial angle chirp by the cylindrical lens, and is outputted and is incident into a pair of long mirrors at different angles. The to-be-measured signal light pulse incident at different incident angles is delayed by the pair of long mirrors. A cluster of to-be-measured signal light pulses with a corresponding repetition rate is outputted to a beam combining mirror, and is combined with a cluster of reference light pulses by the beam combining mirror. A light signal analysis device analyzes the combined cluster of light pulses.
