AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

SOA has the advantages of small size and high integration, but it has the disadvantage of large noise figure and polarization sensitivity. In addition, the nonlinear phenomenon of SOA seriously brings many application restrictions.
FRA is generally used in long-distance transmission systems, and the cost is high

Abstract

An Er-doped optical fibre amplifier is composed of a pumping laser for pumping two channels of optical amplifying system, a 50 / 50 splitter for dividing the pumped light into two halves, and 4 low-reflectivity optical fibre rasters for gain locking. Its advantages are high independency between two channels, automatic locking of gain, high integrated level and low cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical communication transmission, in particular to an erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier. technical background [0002] In the metropolitan ring network, the distance between adjacent sites is generally relatively short, and the line loss to be compensated is relatively small. Therefore, the requirements for the gain of optical amplifiers are generally not high, and they need to be configured in pairs. Currently conventional optical amplifiers include Erbium-doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA), Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA), Raman Distributed Amplifier (FRA) and so on. [0003] At present, EDFA is the most widely used one with the best performance. The minimum power of the pump laser used by EDFA is generally above 80mW, so the gain provided by EDFA often far exceeds the actual demand of the metropolitan ring network. SOA has the advantages of small size and high integration, but it has the disadvantage of l...
