In present paper correlations between different parts of spectrum of a fiber laser with randomly distributed feedback (RDFL) were experimentally measured directly. Implemented statistical analysis demonstrate weak cross-correlations between different lines in generation spectrum. These correlations were vizualized by plotting 2-D probability density functions. Linear correlation coefficient (Pearson coefficient) was calculated for each pair of spectrum lines.
