Abstract

See full text

An example method includes receiving power measurements for a plurality of optical channels. Deviation measurements representing a difference between respective power measurements and corresponding power targets for the plurality of optical channels are created. Correctable deviations for the plurality of optical channels are determined based on the deviation measurements. The correctable deviations may be determined by projecting the measured deviations into a space that defines Raman gain profiles achievable with a set of channels and pumps. Pump settings for a plurality of pumps are determining based upon the correctable deviations for each channel by solving an optimization problem. The pump setting so determined may be applied to the plurality of pumps.
