Abstract
An optical output level control apparatus includes a detector configured to detect power of an input optical signal; an amplifier configured to amplify the input optical signal; a memory configured to store data that define a first curved line representing a relationship between the input power and a drive voltage of the amplifier for obtaining a first output level and data that defines a second curved line representing a relationship between the input power and the drive voltage of the amplifier for obtaining a second output level; a generator configured to correct at least one of the first and second curved lines and generate a target curved line representing a relationship between input power and a drive voltage of the amplifier for obtaining a target output level through interpolation based on the first and second curved lines at least one of which is corrected.
