The hybrid fiber amplifier comprises: RFA and EDFA that does not comprise variable optical attenuator. The RFA comprises pump signal combiner, pump laser group, out-of-band narrow-band filter, and photodetector. The EDFA comprises input coupler, erbium-doped fiber, output coupler, input photodetector, and output photodetector that are connected in sequence. The hybrid fiber amplifier also comprises control module that coordinates and controls EDFA and/or RFA to adjust gain and/or the gain slope based on desired amplification requirements. The EDFA and/or RFA can be coordinated and controlled by using the control module to achieve desired amplification effect. In addition, the EDFA does not comprise the variable optical attenuator, which avoids problems caused by the variable optical attenuator. The hybrid fiber amplifier and method of adjusting gain and gain slope thereof are applicable to technical field of optical communications."},"analysis":{"summary":null,"layman_explanation":null,"technical_analysis":null,"business_analysis":null,"faqs":null,"topics":[],"tech_cluster":null},"seo":{"title":"Hybrid fiber amplifier and method for adjusting gain and gain slope thereof","description":"A hybrid fiber amplifier and method of adjusting gain and gain slope of thereof.
