	The knowledge of the transfer optics between the positions of the Kicker and the BPMs is required for the calculation of the correction signal in transverse feedback systems. Therefore, using nominal values of the transfer optics with uncertainties leads to feedback quality degradation, and thus beam disturbances. In this work, we propose a method for measuring the phase advances and amplitude scaling between the positions of the kicker and the BPMs. Directly after applying a kick on the beam by means of the kicker, we record the BPM signals. Consequently, we use the Second-Order Blind Identification (SOBI) algorithm to decompose the noised recorded signals into independent sources mixture. Finally, we determine the required optics parameters by identifying and analyzing the betatron oscillation sourced from the kick based on its mixing and temporal patterns. Results for the heavy ions synchrotron SIS 18 at the GSI are shown.
