Some existing solutions include special designed fiber Bragg gate, cascaded Fabry-Perot cavity, cascaded micro-ring resonator, etc. For all these technologies, to achieve rectangular transmission profile is still a big challenge. In order to meet this challenge, this thesis presents a novel active optical filter, based on the accumulation of Brillouin gain spectrums from multi-pumps. To reduce the in-band ripples, a feedback compensation process is proposed. This process can adjust the pump lines with the feedback information of last measured gain spectrum. After several times feedback process, a rectangular active filter can be achieved. This thesis will first discuss the feasibility of the active optical filter technology and the necessity of the feedback compensation process, by some theoretical research and numerical simulation. Then some experiments will be performed to verify the technology. By improving the experimental scheme continually, we solved important problems in the experiment, such as the measurement of Brillouin gain profile, the sensitivity of feedback process, the spectrum asymmetry of double sideband modulation, etc. Finally we achieved a series of active optical filters with bandwidth from 40MHz up to 1.5GHz. The resolution of III bandwidth controlling is 20MHz. The in-band ripple of 1GHz bandwidth is less than 0.8dB, and the shape factor is 0.84. The experiment results meet the requirements of flat top and steep edge. And to our knowledge, this is the first optical filter whose transmission profile is so close
