Abstract
An excitation light source apparatus includes: an excitation light source to generate Raman excitation light in a drive state and to stop generating the Raman excitation light in a stop state; a light source controller to control the intensity of the Raman excitation light in the drive state; a light level measuring instrument to measure the light level of signal light; a logarithmic converter to convert at least one measurement result of measuring by the light level measuring instrument to a logarithmic value; and a main controller to decide a correction value based on the logarithmic value of the at least one measurement result in the stop state. The main controller controls the light source controller by using the correction value and a preset gain control target value.
