    摘要: This invention provides an optical amplifier which has low noise characteristics for a wide range of input signal electric power. The optical amplifier has a plurality of cascaded optical amplifying units, a signal level detector, and a pump-source controller. The pump-source controller changes controlling objects from a pump-source corresponding to a first one of the optical amplifying units to a pump-source corresponding to a second one of the optical amplifying units according to a detection level of the signal level detector from a low level to a high level. When the detection level is outside of a control object range, the optical amplifier controls an output from the pump-source to stabilize. When the detection level is within the control object range, the optical amplifier controls an output from a pump-source of each of optical amplifying units according to the detection level.

    摘要: A light emitting control apparatus comprises a light emitting element which emits a light when an input electrical signal is converted into a light signal, a monitoring circuit which monitors the output level of the light emitting element, a sample-and-hold circuit which detects a peak value and is put into the sample mode when data of the monitoring circuit is in the mark state showing voltage and which is in turn put into the hold mode when the data is in the space state showing no voltage, and an amplifier which accomplishes negative feedback control of the output level of the light emitting element by using the output of the sample-and-hold circuit. Thus, the apparatus can quickly respond to a change of the input state and stabilize the output level of the light emitting element for a long time.

    摘要: Light signals of first to n-th bands amplified en bloc undergo proper attenuation through an adjustable optical attenuator in conformance with attenuation in an optical fiber connected to input of an optical amplifying repeater apparatus, whereon the light signals are demultiplexed or separated into individual bands and amplified by first to n-th fixed-gain optical amplifiers (#1, . . . , #n) each having a high fixed gain in the respective bands to be subsequently multiplexed by an optical multiplexer and then sent out onto a transmission line. A monitoring light branching device extracts a part of light power of a specific monitoring wavelength, which is then fed to an adjustable attenuator control circuit which controls the attenuation factor of the adjustable optical attenuator so that the light power of the specific wavelength remains constant. The gain of the optical amplifying repeater apparatus at the specific wavelength can thus be determined. By employing as the optical amplifying medium a substantially homogeneous medium, the gain for the other wavelengths can be fixed. The optical amplifying repeater apparatus whose gain is essentially independent of the change in the number of the wavelengths can thus be realized.

    摘要: Voltage controlling/oscillating device comprises a terminal for setting the delay rate in the delay unit and the delay interpolator. Clock signal whose phase is inverted by the inverting gate is inputted into a first input terminal of the delay interpolator and into the delay unit. The delay unit delays the signal by d1 and inputs into second input terminal of the delay interpolator. Oscillation frequency control voltage is fed into a terminal of the delay interpolator through an oscillation frequency control terminal of the device. Delay control voltage is fed into a terminal of the device in order to control a propagation delay rate in the delay unit and the delay interpolator. The delay rate in a delay unit and a delay interpolator can be adjusted by a delay control voltage.
