Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to an S-band distributed optical fiber Raman amplifier, which belongs to the field of optical communication devices. Background technique
[0002] In the field of optical communication C, in the L-band Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) optical fiber transmission system, the transmission loss can be compensated by a doped fiber amplifier (such as an erbium-doped fiber amplifier EDFA), which does not need to convert the optical signal into electrical energy in advance. In the case of a signal, the optical signal is directly amplified. EDFA can be used to amplify weak optical signals that have been transmitted over long distances and carry a large amount of data, so as to compensate for the attenuation caused by optical signals transmitted along long-distance optical fibers. However, EDFA is only suitable for C and L bands, and special doped optical fibers are required, and the noise factor of the optical amplifier is la...

Embodiment Construction
[0019] refer to figure 1 , the invented S-band distributed fiber Raman amplifier includes a fiber laser 26, a low-loss, broadband pump-signal fiber wavelength division multiplexer 25 for excitation light and transmission signal light, and a section of 50km single-mode fiber 24 , a section of 5km dispersion compensating fiber 22, a gain flattening filter 23, a first optical isolator 21 and a second optical isolator 27. The fiber laser 26 adopts a fiber Raman laser working in the 1428nm band, and its power is adjustable so that the gain of the amplifier is also adjustable. The gain flattening filter 23 is a fiber Bragg grating gain flattening filter, which can make the gain flat in the 1490-1540nm band range, and the gain flatness is less than ±0.5dB in the 50nm spectral range. Single-mode fiber 24 selects common G652 single-mode fiber 24 for use, figure 2 Shown is the actual measured Raman gain spectrum of ordinary G652 single-mode fiber under the pumping condition of 1428nm...
