Method and apparatus for equalizing link performance

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for equalizing link performance, and relate to the field of optical wavelength division multiplexing. In the present invention, target input power spectra and target output power spectra in all OMS sections in a network and single wave attenuation at a power adjusting point may be concurrently calculated based on link information of the OMS sections, fast adjustment may also be implemented for a complex network topology, and the adjustment may be implemented in a one-off manner to avoid a problem that iteration adjustment is caused by mutual impact of power adjusting points during serial adjustment in a ring network. In addition, it is not required to connect an optical path in the calculation phase, thereby eliminating reliance on a connected optical path in a process for equalizing link performance.
