Disclosed is a broadband light source (BLS) necessary to implement wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot (FP) laser diodes (LDs) applicable to an optical subscriber network The BLS is based on a method using mutual injection of low-cost FP LDs and a method using FP LDs undergoing chirping. A power level of a light emitting diodes (LED), an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA), or a super luminescent diode (SLD) used as the conventional BLS is low and its cost is high, such that the conventional BLS is inefficient. However, the present invention can easily implement a low-cost BLS using proposed FP LDs.

摘要:
An optical amplifier comprises a wavelength tunable filter, one or more optical gain stages, and a controller for controlling a spectral profile of the wavelength tunable filter in response to a measured spectral characteristic of the amplifier. The controller may also control gain of the gain stage(s). The controller determines the filter spectral profile necessary to obtain a desired amplifier spectral characteristic. The spectral characteristic may, for example, be a power spectral output of the amplifier or a gain profile of the amplifier. The amplifier may incorporate a dispersion compensator. The controller may control a spectral profile of the wavelength tunable filter and gain of the dispersion compensator. A tunable fiber light source is also described.
