Optical amplifier with feedback to obtain set gain and gain tilt

In an optical amplification apparatus an optical amplifier amplifies an optical signal at set gain. An equalizer changes loss of the amplified optical signal according to wavelengths. A processor controls the equalizer so as to make the equalizer have a loss-wavelength characteristic corresponding t...

Zusammenfassung:In an optical amplification apparatus an optical amplifier amplifies an optical signal at set gain. An equalizer changes loss of the amplified optical signal according to wavelengths. A processor controls the equalizer so as to make the equalizer have a loss-wavelength characteristic corresponding to a gain tilt of the optical amplifier which occurs according to the set gain.
