Abstract

<para xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> This paper considers the control of a particular type of optical amplifier that finds application in long-haul wavelength division multiplexed optical communications systems. The objective of this consideration is to demonstrate an application of extremum seeking to the regulation of amplifier output signal power across a range of signal wavelengths, where limited control authority is available. Although such amplifiers are nonlinear and distributed parameter devices, an extremum seeking design is demonstrated to be a promising approach for achieving the stated amplifier control objectives. </para>
