The reflective semiconductor optical amplifier includes: an optical signal amplification region operating to allow a downward optical signal incident from the external to obtain a gain; and an optical signal modulation region connected to the optical signal amplification region and generating a modulated optical signal. The downward optical signal is amplified through a cross gain modulation using the modulated optical signal and is outputted as an upward optical signal.

A method and apparatus for reproducing a first part of music data having a plurality of repeated parts includes a method and an apparatus allowing a user to listen to more songs including the repeated parts by searching for a boundary between the first and second parts of the music data having the repeated parts via simple frequency analysis, marking information indicating the found boundary, and reproducing the music data until a part indicated by the marked information is reached. Accordingly, music reproduction satisfaction increases since an inconvenience of manipulating the apparatus for each song is lessened and more songs having different patterns are played.
