    • 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.

    • A wavelength division multiplex optical amplification transmission system has a broad signal wavelength band and can be easily constructed. A transmission line provided between a lightwave transmitting terminal station and a lightwave receiving terminal station is constructed of optical amplifiers, optical filters and a transmission line. Structuring the transmission line involves the use of an optical amplifier utilizing high-concentration Al added EDFA, thereby proving a module excluding the optical filters with a gain wavelength characteristic in which a gain peak exists within a target wavelength range that should be a signal wavelength band, and there is an ill-balanced symmetry with respect to the gain peak in the target wavelength range. Used is the optical filter given a loss wavelength characteristic in which a loss maximum wavelength with a maximum loss exists in the target wavelength range, a gain simply decreases as a distance from the loss maximum wavelength increases within the target wavelength range, and a characteristic obtained by adding the loss wavelength characteristics is relatively coincident in values with the gain wavelength characteristic.
