Abstract
A light source for Raman amplification to Raman-amplify signal light includes: plural incoherent light sources that output incoherent light; plural pumping light sources that output second-order pumping light; an optical fiber for Raman amplification to Raman-amplify the incoherent light with the second-order pumping light, and outputs the amplified incoherent light; and an output unit connected to the optical transmission fiber, receiving the amplified incoherent light, and outputting the amplified incoherent light as first-order pumping light having a wavelength that Raman-amplifies the signal light to the optical transmission fiber.
