Apparatus and method for driving wavelength-independent light source

Abstract

An apparatus for driving a wavelength-independent light source is provided. The apparatus includes a seed light signal generation unit configured to generate seed light signals with one or more wavelengths based on a wavelength identification signal, a wavelength light detection unit configured to detect the wavelength identification signal from the seed light signals, an extraction unit configured to extract wavelength information corresponding to the detected wavelength identification signal and extract a driving condition of a wavelength-independent light source corresponding to the extracted wavelength information, and a driving unit configured to drive the wavelength-independent light source according to the extracted driving condition.
