This application note describes how a WaveShaper1 combined with an optical spectrum analyser (OSA) or optical channel monitor (OCM) can be used to create a robust automated gain flattening system that adapts onthe-fly to changes in the optical power spectrum. The system is not only applicable to EDFA, but any other optical amplifier or broadband source e.g. Raman amplifiers or supercontinuum lasers.
