Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of optical signal amplification, and provides an erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier light path with an adjustable gain range. The erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier light path comprises a gain switch unit, wherein the gain switch unit comprises two optical switches, an erbium-doped optical fiber unit and a controller, wherein the two optical switches include a first optical switch and a second optical switch; one end of the first optical switch is connected with one end of the second optical switch, and the other end of the first optical switchand the other end of the second optical switch are connected with the erbium-doped optical fiber unit separately; and the two optical switches are connected with the controller. The erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier optical path provided by the invention can provide a relatively wide gain range and ensure relatively high optical characteristics.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical signal amplification, in particular to an erbium-doped fiber amplifier optical circuit with adjustable gain range. Background technique [0002] Erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is an indispensable unit in the DWDM all-optical network. It can directly amplify multiple optical signals online at the same time, and is used to compensate for the attenuation of optical power caused by factors such as line transmission and node loss. In the network configuration, the EDFA output single-wave power of each node is generally kept constant. Different span losses make the incident light of the module change accordingly, such as by adjusting the gain configuration of the module to achieve a fixed single-wavelength power output. Ordinary EDFA cannot cover too wide a range of span loss. When the attenuation value of the gain flattening filter in the optical path is large, the noise at the low gain point wil...
