Abstract:
A tunable light source includes a substrate; a light source; a wavelength selecting device that selects, according to a control signal, output light with a specific wavelength from light output from the light source; a wavelength filter that is disposed on the substrate, filters the output light, and outputs the filtered light; a light-receiving device that receives the filtered light from the wavelength filter; and a controller configured to generate the control signal based on an output transmittance corresponding to a quantity of the received light received by the light-receiving device, a first transmittance corresponding to a target wavelength, a second transmittance corresponding to a shorter-wavelength limit of a control range including the target wavelength, and a third transmittance corresponding to a longer-wavelength limit of the control range, and output the generated control signal to the wavelength selecting device.

Claim (Index 5):
A method performed by a controller of a tunable light source including\n a substrate, a light source, a wavelength selecting device that selects, according to a control signal, output light with a specific wavelength from light output from the light source, a wavelength filter that is disposed on the substrate, filters the output light, and outputs the filtered light, and a light-receiving device that receives the filtered light from the wavelength filter, the method comprising\n obtaining a target wavelength of the output light; \n estimating an output transmittance of the output light based on a quantity of the received light received by the light-receiving device; \n generating the control signal based on the output transmittance, a first transmittance corresponding to the target wavelength, a second transmittance corresponding to a shorter-wavelength limit of a control range including the target wavelength, and a third transmittance corresponding to a longer-wavelength limit of the control range; and \n outputting the generated control signal to the wavelength selecting device.
