| 摘要 |
An optical amplifier with optical gain-control (OGC) has an input (11) for the signals to be amplified and an output (12) for the amplified signals. It comprises in series a first Bragg grating (BG) (15), a variable optical attenuator (VOA) (17), an optical amplification unit with pump (13) and a second Bragg grating (BG) (14). The two gratings define between them a laser cavity with the amplification unit (13) in the middle and the signals to be amplified are placed at the input of the amplification unit (13) with a splitter (16) at the input of the amplification unit. A network with nodes comprising said amplifiers is also described.
