Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de surveillance de la performance optique destiné à un système de transmission à amplification optique. Ce procédé permet de fournir une puissance optique à chaque site d'amplificateur en tenant compte des imprécisions induites par la diffusion Raman stimulée (SRS) dans l'estimation de puissance obtenue à l'aide des procédés actuels. On utilise un analyseur de spectre optique au niveau de la sortie de la liaison de transmission d'intérêt en vue de mesurer avec précision la puissance de sortie de chaque longueur d'onde. Cette valeur est envoyée en amont vers le dernier amplificateur dans la liaison, d'où le calcul d'un terme d'erreur sous la forme d'une différence entre la mesure actuelle et l'estimation. On utilise ensuite le terme d'erreur pour inférer l'erreur induite par SRS au moyen d'éléments de système non pris en compte dans le modèle. Ce terme d'erreur est alors envoyé en retour vers chaque amplificateur dans la liaison de façon que le réglage de la puissance estimée tienne compte de l'imprécision induite par SRS.
