ABSTRACT:
A Raman amplifier that amplifies a signal light intensity by using a Raman amplification effect of an optical fiber transmission channel has an excitation unit that supplies excitation lights of a plurality of wavelengths to the optical fiber transmission channel and performs Raman amplification, a signal light monitor that monitors the signal light intensity of each wavelength contained in the signal light that is Raman amplified, an output light intensity deviation monitoring circuit that finds a deviation in the intensity of each signal light detected by the signal light monitor, and an excitation light control circuit that controls an excitation light intensity from excitation light sources of each wavelength constituting the excitation unit so as to correspond to a predetermined characteristic based on a deviation of the intensity of signal light found by the output light intensity deviation monitoring circuit.
