发明名称 OPTICAL AMPLIFIER CONTROLLER
摘要 A controller is configured to determine a first amount of current associated with a first power level. The controller is configured further to generate a digital pulse signal based on the first amount of current, where the digital pulse signal may have a second power level and an associated duty cycle. The controller is configured further to convert the digital pulse signal into a second amount of current and output the second amount of current as a pulse signal based on the duty cycle.

主权项 1. A system comprising: a controller configured to: determine a first amount of current associated with a first power level,generate a digital pulse signal based on the first amount of current, the digital pulse signal having a second power level and an associated duty cycle, the second power level being selected by the controller based on a digital value being associated with the second power level, andthe duty cycle being selected by the controller based on a difference between the second power level and the first power level,convert the digital pulse signal, using the digital value, into a second amount of current, andoutput the second amount of current as a pulse signal based on the duty cycle; an optical pump configured to: receive the second amount of current from the controller, andgenerate optical power, associated with the first power level, based on the second amount of current and the duty cycle; and an amplifier module configured to: receive an optical signal,receive the optical power from the optical pump,add gain, using the optical power, to the optical signal, andoutput the optical signal after adding the gain.
