    摘要: An optical amplification device which includes first and second optical amplifiers, and a controller. The first optical amplifier receives a light and amplifies the received light. The second optical amplifier receives the light amplified by the first optical amplifier, and amplifies the received light. When a level of the light received by the first optical amplifier changes by Δ, the controller controls a level of the light received by the second optical amplifier to change by approximately -Δ. In various embodiments, the controller causes the sum of the gains of the first and second optical amplifiers to be constant. In other embodiments, the optical amplification device includes first and second optical amplifier and a gain adjustor. The gain adjustor detects a deviation in gain of the first optical amplifier from a target gain, and adjusts the gain of the second optical amplifier to compensate for the detected deviation.

    摘要: An optical amplifier of a wavelength-division multiplexing transmission system that includes a pre-stage optical amplifying unit and a post stage optical amplifying unit. The pre-stage optical amplifying unit has a rare-earth element doped optical fiber (EDF 1) and a pump light source (LD 1 - 3) for inputting a pump light to the rare-earth element doped optical fiber (EDF 1). The post-stage optical amplifying unit has a second rare-earth element doped optical fiber (EDF 2-1, EDF 2-2) and a pump light source (LD 4 - 12) for inputting a pump light to the second rare-earth element doped optical fiber (EDF 2-1). The pre-stage optical amplifying unit and the post-stage optical amplifying unit are optically connected by a detachable optical coupling device. In addition a gain equalizing unit (GEQ 1, GEQ 2), positioned on an output side of the optical fibers, compensates for wavelength-dependency of a gain characteristic of the optical fibers.
