Raman amplifier is an open area of research in telecommunication field. This paper discusses the performance of 64 channels of 10 Gbps WDM systems with backward multipump Raman amplifier. The main goal of this paper is the optimization of Raman amplifier to minimize its gain variation without using any gain flattening techniques. To increase the transmission capacity of DWDM system, Raman amplifier with backward multipump configuration is implemented. The optimized parameters such as pump power and frequencies are used to deliver both ground and excited state absorption for amplification in S+C and C+L band region. The pump power and frequencies are optimized through multitarget and multiparameter optimization tool available in OptiSystem software. Gain ripple was achieved <0.5 dB for this simulation setup. The maximum flat gain achieved is 8.6 dB and noise figure of <8 dB was achieved for this wide bandwidth without using gain flattening techniques. This amplifier design will be helpful for CATV applications and telecommunication networks.

AbstractGain flatness of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is an important aspect to support high speed multimedia applications for smart devices, cloud computing, big data analysis and high definition television (HDTV) as it achieves equal power for all dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) channels. In this paper, we compare 32 and 64 channels 10 Gbps DWDM system using hybrid EDFA+ Ytterbium-doped silica fiber amplifier (YDFA) in C + L band for 0.4, 0.8 and 1.6 nm wavelength spacing along with FBG for gain flattening. The system performance has been analyzed in terms of optical signal to noise ratio and spectral gain fluctuation observed from the optical power spectrums. It is observed that YDFA although extends the amplification window of EDFA from 1530 to 1610 nm (C to L band), but gain fluctuates over the operating wavelength range. Gain flatness is enormously improved (5–10 dB) by adding FBG as a gain flattening filter to the hybrid (EDFA+YDFA) amplifier. It is found that as the channel spacing decreases (from 1.6 to 0.4 nm) and the number of channels increases (from 32 to 64), the gain reduces due to inter-channel crosstalk and four wave-mixing effect.

We demonstrate improved performance of parametric amplifier cascaded with Raman amplifier for gain of 54.79 dB. We report amplification of L-band using 100 × 10 Gbps Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed (DWDM) system with 25 GHz channel spacing. The gain achieved is the highest reported so far with gain flatness of 3.38 dB without using any gain flattening technique. Hybrid modulated parametric pump is used for suppressing four-wave mixing (FWM) around pump region, resulting in improvement of gain flatness by 2.42 dB. The peak to peak variation of gain is achieved less than 1.6 dB. DWDM system with 16-channel, 25 GHz spaced system has been analyzed thoroughly with hybrid modulated parametric pump amplified Raman-FOPA amplifier for gain flatness and improved performance in terms of BER and Q-factor.

Through studying the basic principle of super-fluorescent fiber source and combining with internal and external gain flattening technique, the spectral flatness of erbium-doped fiber amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) source with two-stage double-pass configuration pumped by two laser diodes (LDs) is improved. By optimizing the lengths of two-stage erbium-doped fiber (EDF) and adjusting the pump power of two LDs,the powers of C-band and L-band are matching, and the spectral flatness is superior to 0.5dBm from 1535 to 1610 nm. Utilizing the long period fiber grating (LPFG)-based thermally-insensitive gain flattening filter (GFF) fabricated by ourselves, the spectral protrusion is flattened near the peak of absorption wavelength of EDF, which make the spectrum not only cover the range of C-band and L-band, also realize the spectral flatness is better than 0.8dBm in the range of 3dB bandwidth. Application of the fiber ASE source in fiber Bragg grating sensing system could decrease the multi-signal peak power imbalance.

Abstract Explosive increase in internet services put peer pressure on conventional band grid (1530–1570 nm) and therefore L-band wide wavelength grid is required to cater the ever-increasing demands. In this work, accentuation is given to enhance the gain flattening of ultradense (25 GHz) L-band WDM system using single stage EDFA amplifier when ultralow power is launched from 16 and 32 channels. High gain and gain flattening is achieved by incorporating three fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) for amplified spontaneous noise reinjection. Maximum Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) is emerged at 1565 nm for the 1575.69–1579 nm input wavelengths (16 channels) and 1572.58–1579 nm (32 channels) at −55 dBm ultra low carrier powers. To optimize different parameters of L-band EDFA, different physical parameters such as core radius, EDF link lengths, and launched powers are varied, and results are analyzed in terms of lateness. Maximum gain is found out to be 34.12 dB at optimal physical parameters of the EDF with gain flatness of ±0.45 dB in case of 16 channels and ±1.41 in case of 32 channels.
