Flat gain spectrum design of Raman fiber amplifiers based on particle swarm optimization and average power analysis technique

In this work, the modified particle swarm optimization is used as an optimization tool to determine the set of wavelengths and power levels of pumps that delivers a flat gain spectrum for Raman fiber amplifiers. The average power analysis technique is used as a numerical method to solve the coupled Raman amplifier equations. By combining the modified particle swarm optimization and average power analysis technique an efficient algorithm for the design of flat-gain-spectrum broadband Raman fiber amplifiers is constructed. Application of this algorithm to the design of flat-gain-spectrum broadband Raman fiber amplifiers shows that the design efficiency of the new method is improved by 1-2 orders of magnitude compared with similar implementations previously reported in the literature. A 4-backward-pump gain-flattened Raman amplifier with bandwidth of 100-nm and maximum gain ripple of <1.0 dB is designed to demonstrate the technique.

Optimization of pump parameters for gain flattened Raman fiber amplifiers based on artificial fish school algorithm

In this work, a novel metaheuristic named artificial fish school algorithm is introduced into the optimization of pump parameters for the design of gain flattened Raman fiber amplifiers for the first time. Artificial fish school algorithm emulates three simple social behaviors of a fish in a school, namely, preying, swarming and following, to optimize a target function. In this algorithm the pump wavelengths and power levels are mapped respectively to the state of a fish in a school, and the gain of a Raman fiber amplifier is mapped to the concentration of a food source for the fish school to search. Application of this algorithm to the design of a C-band gain flattened Raman fiber amplifier leads to an optimized amplifier that produces a flat gain spectrum with 0.63 dB in band ripple for given conditions. This result demonstrates that the artificial fish school algorithm is efficient for the optimization of pump parameters of gain flattened Raman fiber amplifiers.     

Shooting algorithm and particle swarm optimization based Raman fiber amplifiers gain spectra design

An initial value determination method with a contraction factor for the counter-pumped Raman coupled equations is proposed. This method is used in conjunction with initial guess correction mechanism of Newton's method to construct a new efficient shooting algorithm for the solution of counter-pumped Raman coupled equations. The particle'swarm optimization is used to find the optimal wavelengths and powers for the pumps. By combining the new shooting algorithm and particle swarm optimization a powerful approach to the design of gain spectra for Raman fiber amplifiers is developed. Using this approach a counter-pumped broadband Raman fiber amplifier in C + L-band is designed and optimized. An average on-off gain of 9.3 dB for a bandwidth of 95 nm is obtained using only 4 pumps, with an in-band ripple level of ± 0.7 dB.

The moment method for fiber Raman amplifier gain ripple minimization

We aim to propose a novel fiber Raman amplifier modeling based on the moment method, which is previously introduced for modeling the inhomogeneous Erbium doped fiber amplifiers and recently employed to analyze the fiber Raman amplifier with continuous pump spectrum. In this model, the number of governing equations is independent of the number of signals and according to the degree of accuracy it is proportional to the number of pumps. This method is employed to analyze the Raman fiber amplifiers with an arbitrary input signal line shape and to minimize the gain ripple of the fiber Raman amplifier with respect to the pump powers and pump frequencies.

Suppression of stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is demonstrated in a cladding-pumped fiber amplifier. The Yb-doped amplifier fiber design incorporates a high-index ring that resonantly couples SRS wavelengths out of the gain material, thus filtering the gain. Modeling shows that fiber asymmetry plays an important role in the filtering spectrum.     

Remotely Pumped Hybrid Amplifiers for Extended Bidirectional Passive Optical Networks

In this contribution, we optimize design parameters of hybrid optical amplifiers utilizing distributed Raman amplification in transmission fiber and gain of discrete, remotely pumped erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) for wideband, bidirectional operation in metropolitan area networks (MAN). The design is based on an application of a numerical model, which takes into account pump-to-pump and signal-to-signal interactions and generation of amplified spontaneous emission in the Raman amplifier and solves the standard rate-propagation equations in an erbium-doped fiber (EDF). We predict 12 dB gain across 72 nm of optical bandwidth with gain ripple better than 10%. The recently proposed serial topology of EDFA is considered; this enables the wideband, bidirectional operation of a hybrid amplifier with only two pump laser diodes emitting in the 1430 and 1480 nm bands.
