摘要： A gain equalizer which equalizes gain versus wavelength characteristics of an optical amplifier. The gain versus wavelength characteristics of the optical amplifier include first, second and third gain peaks in a wavelength band with the second gain peak being between the first and third gain peaks. The optical amplifier amplifies an input signal in accordance with the gain versus wavelength characteristics to produce an output signal. The gain equalizer includes first, second and third optical filters having first, second and third transparency characteristics, respectively. The first, second and third transparency characteristics are periodic waveforms having different periods related to the wavelength difference between the first and third gain peaks. The second transparency characteristic is a periodic waveform having a period equal to 1/(2n) of the period of the waveform of the first transparency characteristic. The third transparency characteristic is a periodic waveform having a period equal to ¼ of the period of the waveform of the first transparency characteristic. For example, the first transparency characteristic is a periodic waveform with ¼ period extending between the first and third gain peaks, the second transparency characteristic is a periodic waveform with one period extending between the first and third gain peaks, and the third transparency characteristic is a periodic waveform with two periods extending between the first and third gain peaks.

摘要： The invention provides an optical transmission method and apparatus suitable for use with a terminal station apparatus for an optical communication system for a very long distance of up to several thousands kilometers across an ocean as well as an optical amplification method and apparatus suitable for use with a repeater for an optical communication system. The methods and apparatus are improved in that the excessive loss in an optical amplifier and the variation of the branching ratio are suppressed to suppress the variation of the gain to suppress the polarization dependency of the loss or the gain on a transmission line of the optical communication system. The optical transmission apparatus comprises a depolarized light source for outputting depolarized light, and an external modulator for modulating light from the depolarized light source.

摘要： An optical transmitter having a function which compensates for wavelength dispersion is provided with a plurality of light sources for outputting light having wavelengths that differ from one another. Before the optical transmission system begins operating, the wavelength of light output to an optical transmission line is varied by changing over the light sources in order to detect a wavelength whose transmission characteristic is optimum with regard to wavelength dispersion exhibited by this optical transmission line. During system operation, the light having the detected optimum wavelength is output to the optical transmission line.
