Title:
MONITORING APPARATUS FOR OPTICAL AMPLIFIER, OPTICAL AMPLIFYING SYSTEM, AND METHOD OF MONITORING AMPLIFIED OPTICAL SIGNAL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/171484
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
It is difficult to flatten the gain profile of an optical amplifier without increasing the power consumption, the cost, and the size of the optical amplifier; therefore, a monitoring apparatus for optical amplifier according to an exemplary aspect of the invention includes an optical filtering means for receiving a monitor light beam of the optical amplifier and transmitting a filtered monitor light beam with a set range of wavelength band; a photoelectric conversion means for converting the filtered monitor light beam into a monitoring signal; and a spectrum information generating means for generating spectrum information based on the monitoring signal, the spectrum information including information on a spectrum profile of output of the optical amplifier.
