Schematics of WdM spectrometers based on (a) dispersive structure, (b) arrayed or tunable narrowband filters, and WM spectrometers based on (c) Fourier-transform spectrometers formed by tunable Mach-Zehnder interferometers, and (d) broadband filter or detector arrays with distinctive spectral responses for computational spectrum reconstruction, respectively.
