Abstract
A Self-adapting feed forward control apparatus in an optical amplifier includes a feed forward controller for collecting target output power (Pout) and controlling drive current of a pump laser in the optical amplifier; a feedback controller for calculating target output power (Pt) and collecting actual output power (Pout), calculating deviation between (Pt) and (Pout), and controlling drive current of the pump laser; and a parameter estimator for collecting power target, output power and summation of output signal of the feed forward controller and feedback controller, and estimating the feed forward parameter and updating the parameter of the feed forward controller. The apparatus can automatically correct the feed forward control parameters according to the variation of EDFA parameters due to environmental condition changes or device aging.
