Abstract
Description
最初に、本発明の実施形態の内容を列記して説明する。一実施形態に係る光増幅装置の制御方法は、4値以上の値がパルス振幅変調された光信号を入力する光減衰器と、光減衰器から出力される光信号を増幅する光半導体増幅器とを備える光増幅装置を制御する方法であって、光減衰器に光信号を入力する第1ステップと、光減衰器に入力する光信号の強度によらず、光減衰器から出力される光信号の強度の最大値が目標値より小さくなるように光減衰器の減衰率を制御する第2ステップと、光半導体増幅器の増幅率を固定に制御する第3ステップと、を含む。
本発明の実施形態に係る光増幅装置の制御方法および光増幅装置の具体例を、以下に図面を参照しつつ説明する。なお、本発明はこれらの例示に限定されるものではなく、特許請求の範囲によって示され、特許請求の範囲と均等の意味及び範囲内でのすべての変更が含まれることが意図される。以下の説明では、図面の説明において同一の要素には同一の符号を付し、重複する説明を省略する。
図9は、上記実施形態の第1変形例に係る光増幅装置10Bの構成を示すブロック図である。図9に示されるように、本変形例の光増幅装置10Bは、上記実施形態の構成に加えて、光分岐素子16および光検出素子17を備えている。
図11は、上記実施形態の第2変形例に係る光増幅装置10Cの構成を示すブロック図である。図11に示されるように、本変形例の光増幅装置10Cと上記第1変形例とが異なる点は、光分岐素子13が、光減衰器11の他端ではなく光減衰器11の一端と第1光ファイバ5との間に光結合されている点である。光分岐素子13は、光減衰器11に入力される光信号S1の一部である光信号S15を分岐し、残部である光信号S16を光減衰器11に向けて出力する。光分岐素子13は、分岐した光信号S15を光検出素子14に提供する。光検出素子14は、この光信号S15の光強度を検知することにより、光信号S1の強度を検知する。光検出素子14は、光信号S15の光強度に応じた(言い換えれば、光信号S1の光強度に応じた)電気信号Sd3を出力する。この電気信号Sd3は制御回路15に提供される。なお本変形例においても、光分岐素子13および光検出素子14は光減衰器11とともに一の筐体21内に収容されている。制御回路15は、光検出素子14から受けた電気信号Sd3に基づいて、光減衰器11の減衰率を設定する。
