ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides light frequency control apparatus comprising a light pulse signal generating mechanism for converting continuous light into a light pulse signal, and outputting this light pulse signal; a light signal generating mechanism for repeatedly generating at predetermined cycles, a light signal, in which a light frequency component therein is shifted to form a staircase shape based on the number of cycles of a loop within which the light pulse signal circulates; and a dummy light generating mechanism for generating dummy light at a timing such that the level of the light signal becomes zero, and supplying this dummy light to the light amplifying mechanism. The aforementioned loop is formed from a light amplifying mechanism for amplifying the light pulse signal outputted from the light pulse signal generating mechanism, light delay mechanism for delaying the light pulse signal a fixed amount; and frequency shifting mechanism for shifting the frequency of the light pulse signal.
