Abstract

In this paper, we compare the use of various field approximations of modal fields for gain calculations in erbium‐doped fibers. Our results show that the use of an appropriately chosen rectangular approximation leads to simple analytical expressions for the gain characteristics, and still retains sufficient accuracy. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract A new design of an all‐optical gain‐clamped erbium‐doped fiber amplifier is demonstrated. The amplifier is based on the conventional ring cavity, where the gain is clamped at 21.84 dB via optical feedback using a single fiber Bragg grating for an input signal power as high as βˆ’8 dBm. ©

In this paper we have proposed a novel technique of gain flattening of erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) in which a long period grating is written in the erbium doped fiber (EDF) itself. The salient feature of the proposed technique is that in addition to usual gain flattening, there is an enhance

Dynamic gain fluctuations in a ring-laser gainclamped EDFA submitted to WDM traffic fluctuations are experimentally investigated. We measured the effect of relaxation oscillations that build up with laser action upon the BER on a 10-Gb/s optical transmission. Power penalties up to 1 dB are observed
