Zusammenfassung:A method for realizing precise gain control for a hybrid fibre amplifier, and a hybrid fibre amplifier, in which by an erbium-doped fibre amplifier firstly outputting a constant power, a comparable source signal optical power is provided for a raman fibre amplifier of a next stage. A feedback for the gain control may be formed by comparing a source signal optical power calculated after starting pumping of the Raman fibre amplifier and a source signal optical power detected after pumping stops, thereby greatly improving gain control precision of the Raman fibre amplifier. Moreover, the erbium-doped fibre amplifier parts of all the hybrid fibre amplifiers may simultaneously output a constant optical power, and the Raman amplifier parts of all the hybrid fibre amplifiers may simultaneously start calibration, so that the time for starting operation of the entire system may be improved greatly.
