Abstract
System and method for managing spectral hole burning (SHB) effect in an optical transport network (OTN) link. The method is performed by an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit of an amplification assembly of the OTN link. The method comprises determining, via a first photodetector communicatively connected to the AGC circuit, an input power of an income signal and, in response to the input power being less than a predetermined portion of a full-loading signal power, causing a pump power variable attenuator (PVOA) of the amplification assembly to attenuate pump power from a pump source, the PVOA being disposed optically intermediate a first doped fiber and a second doped fiber of the amplification assembly.
