141 Optical fiber amplifier and optical transmission system using the same JP16230097 1997-06-19 JPH1117259A 1999-01-22 SAKANO SHINJI; YOKOTA ICHIRO; KOSAKA JUNYA; SUZUKI TAKAYUKI
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make the level of the optical input to an amplifying optical fiber const. to eliminate such breakdown factors as optical surge and reduce the cost and size by monitoring the level of the light just after the optical attenuation to make the feed back control of the level of the optical input to a variable light attenuator so as to make the monitor value always const. SOLUTION: A variable optical attenuator 10 adjusts the optical level of a signal light 1 incident on a input end optical connector so that the monitored optical level just after the attenuator 10 may be const. For example, in the case of C, B with a span loss lower 10 dB or 20 dB the loss of the optical attenuator on the input side is adjusted so as to provide an optical input with a loss equal to that in case A with the max span loss of 22 dB according to the transmission path design. This adjusting is automated by a feed back control from an optical monitor just after the attenuator 10, thereby adjusting the attenuator 10 for attenuations of 13 dB, 3 dB in the case of, e.g. C, B span losses.

143 Optical signal switching device and optical transmission system JP6072896 1996-03-18 JPH09252281A 1997-09-22 SAKAMOTO HIROSHI
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate the optical power loss and also to reduce the scales of the device and system by driving a 1st or 2nd pumping laser beam source. SOLUTION: The 1st and 2nd rare earth dope optical fibers 5 and 6 are connected to an optical fiber 1 of the input side. When the pumping light is inputted to the fiber 5 from a 1st pumping laser beam source 7, the optical signal received from the fiber 1 is amplified and outputted. Then this optical signal is damped by the fiber 6. When the pumping light is inputted to the fiber 6 from a 2nd pumping laser beam source 8, the optical signal received from the fiber 1 is amplified and outputted. Then this optical signal is damped by the fiber 5. Both beam sources 7 and 8 are selectively driven, so that the transmission lines of optical signals are switched. In such a constitution, the optical signal loss can be eliminated and the scales of these device and system can be reduced. Then the device and system can be easily applied also to a submarine cable.

PURPOSE:To reduce wavelength dependency of amplification gain in various wavelength ranges and to maintain use efficiency of amplification energy by using a composite optical fiber wherein amplification optical fibers of different compositions are connected in series for amplification. CONSTITUTION:A composite optical fiber 110 inputs signal light and pumping light and outputs signal light after amplification. A plurality of optical fibers 111, 112 of different compositions whereto Er is added are connected in series, and an excitation device 210 generates pumping light and supplies it to the composite optical fiber 110. In the excitation device 210, any excitation method of forward excitation, backward excitation and bidirectional excitation can be adopted. Difference of compositions of the optical fibers 111, 112 is difference of each concentration of Al2O3, P2O5, and added Er contained in each of the optical fibers 111, 112 or difference of combination thereof. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the wavelength dependence of amplification gain in various wavelength ranges and to maintain use efficiency of amplification energy.

A system has a plurality of non-linear circuit stages and an intervening linear circuit stage. An input signal is provided to a first non-linear circuit stage, and from the first non-linear circuit stage, to the linear circuit stage. The first non-linear circuit stage applies a second-order distortion to the input signal and provides the resulting signal to the linear circuit stage. The resulting signal that is output from the linear circuit stage is inverted with respect to the input signal and suitably linearly processed (attenuated or amplified). This signal is then provided to a second non-linear circuit that applies a second-order distortion and outputs a signal that has an overall reduction in second-order distortion.

Two rare earth-doped optical fibers are connected in series and used to amplify input light. A splitter is installed between these two rare earth-doped optical fibers. The input light is monitored by having the portion of the input light that is branched off, by the splitter received by a photodiode. Excitation light output from a laser light source is guided by optical couplers and supplied to the above rare earth-doped optical fibers. A control circuit controls the output light level and, at the same time, stops the output from the laser light source when the input light level drops below a specified threshold value. The gain of the first stage rare earth-doped optical fiber while excitation light is being supplied is larger than the loss that occurs due to branching of the input light by the splitter.
