Abstract:
The present invention relates to a cascaded multi-wavelength Raman fiber amplification stage with a length of optical fiber having input (15) and output (16) sections, pump laser means (11) for introducing pump radiation of wavelength nullp into said length of optical fiber (13), at least two pairs of reflector means (151,161; . . . ;159, 169), spaced-apart the length of optical fiber (13), at least one of said pairs of reflector means has an output reflector mean (161, 162, 163), with a reflectivity lower than 100% and a feed back loop with: a tap coupler (20) for deriving a low percentage of the optical output signal as a optical monitor signal (28), at least one wavelength selecting element (21, 25,26, 27) for the optical monitor signal (28), at least one opto-electrical converter (23, 231,232,233) generating a electrical signal and a control circuit (27) for the electrical signal connected to adjustment means (181, 182, 183) adjusting the reflectivity of the output reflector means (161, 162, 163).
