A study is performed on relative-phase ambiguities in measurements of ultrashort pulses with well-separated multiple frequency components. It is shown that if a laser pulse consists of components that are well separated in the frequency domain, the self-referenced pulse characterization techniques are incapable of yielding the overall phase relation among the spectral components of the pulse. If a well-characterized reference pulse is available, spectral interferometry can determine the phase relation.
