| Zusammenfassung: | An amplifying module
101
for an optical network has a fiber amplifier
102
for amplifying a multiplexed optical stream having a plurality of wavelength channels. The fiber amplifier
102
has a set point gain. The module
101
has module control means
108
for controlling the operating conditions of the fiber amplifier
102
and supplying means for supplying to the module control means
108
information representative of the channel loading condition. In response to the information, the module control means
108
adjusts the operating conditions of the fiber amplifier
102
such that the fiber amplifier gain does not exceed an acceptable deviation limit away from a set point gain. |
