An interferometric measurement system suppresses cross talk between optical waveguides used to measure one or more parameters. A first interferometric measurement channel coupled to a first waveguide, and a second interferometric measurement channel coupled to a second waveguide. At least one of the channels includes a reference light path in addition to the first and second waveguides. A reference path optical delay is associated with the reference light path, a first optical delay is associated with the input portion of at least one of the first and second interferometric measurement channels, and a second optical delay is associated with an output portion of the one interferometric measurement channel. A value of the first optical delay and a value the second optical delay are chosen to suppress crosstalk associated with the other of the first and second interferometric measurement channels in the one interferometric measurement channel over a predetermined length of the first waveguide. Signals corresponding to the reference light path and the first and second interferometric measurement channels are processed to measure one or more parameters.
