Abstract. In a pulse-train interferometer, the position of zero optical path difference (OPD) between the reference and object mirror can be obtained using the envelope peak of the interference fringe signal. Based on communication theory, frequency/phase information can provide higher accuracy compared to envelope/amplitude information. We propose a phase information-assisted method to obtain the position of zero OPD for a pulse-train interferometer. We demonstrate and verify that this phase approach can be used to determine the position of zero OPD with high accuracy using experimental data. This method is reliable and provides good performance for length measurement.
