ABSTRACT:
In a light amplifier device having a rare-earth element doped optical fiber to which an input light signal and an exciting light are applied, an exciting-light emitting part generates the exciting light. A variable attenuator which attenuates the exciting light applied. A driving part which supplies a driving current to the exciting light part. A monitor part monitors the input light signal. A light-emitting part generates a light in a wavelength band which includes a wavelength of the input light signal. A control part for controlling either the attenuator or driving part, when the monitor part detects a change in the input light signal, so that the light generated by the light-emitting part is applied to the rare-earth element doped optical fiber.
