AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing technology, at least one pump source is required for each EDFA, which results in high production costs and limits the possibility of miniaturization of the device.

Method used

A dual-channel EDFA structure with shared pump and automatic gain control is adopted. The pump light from the common pump source is used to input the remaining pump light after the first EDFA into the second EDFA. The gain of the second EDFA is ensured by a wavelength division multiplexer and a filter. The controller adjusts the pump light power to achieve independent gain for each EDFA.

Benefits of technology

By sharing the pump source, the number of pump sources in a multi-EDFA environment is reduced, production costs are lowered, a foundation is laid for device miniaturization, and independent gain control of each EDFA is achieved.

Abstract

本发明涉及通信技术领域,提供了一种共享泵浦的自动增益控制的双路EDFA和ROADM结构。其中所述双路EDFA包括公共泵浦源、第一EDFA、第二EDFA和第一分波器;所述公共泵浦源输出的第一泵浦光输入至第一EDFA的泵浦输入端,以用于第一EDFA的信号增益;第一分波器对第一EDFA的输出信号进行分波,得到第二泵浦光,并将第二泵浦光输入至所述第二EDFA,以用于第二EDFA的信号增益;其中,所述第二泵浦光为第一泵浦光用于第一EDFA的信号增益后所剩余的泵浦光。本发明将第一EDFA2中剩余的泵浦光用于第二EDFA3,使通过一个公共泵浦源即能够实现两个EDFA的增益功能,从而通过泵浦源的公用,减少多EDFA环境下所需使用的泵浦源的数量,从而减少生产成本,为使用多个EDFA的器件的小型化提供基础。
