Erbium-doped fiber amplifier for video distribution networks

The possibility of an application of Er-doped fiber amplifiers to AM-FDM (frequency division multiplexing) or FM-FDM video distribution networks is discussed. The measured noise and modulation distortion properties of ER-doped fiber amplifiers are good enough to meet even the severe quality standards set for trunk lines. A carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) of 57 dB for an AM-FDM transmission was measured. A second-order harmonic distortion (HD2) of less than -56 dB was measured by the monotone method (modulation depth m=50%), and a cross modulation distortion (XM) of less than -63 dB was measured by the two-tone method (m=25%×channel). On the basis of these values, composite second-order distortion (CSO) and XM in a 40-channel transmission were estimated as less than -57 dB and -73 dB, respectively. Significant reduction of noise and modulation distortion is made possible by optimizing the length of Er-doped fiber amplifiers and using input- and output-port isolators     

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier cascade for multichannel coherentoptical transmission

The requirements and practicalities of amplifier cascades for multichannel coherent transmission are discussed. A four-amplifier cascade which maintains an overall noise figure of less than 13 dB across a 20-nm optical bandwidth for total input powers up to -10 dBm is described. A potential capacity of 100 wavelength division multiplexing channels is demonstrated in a 300-km 622-Mb/s DPSK (differential phase shift keying) coherent transmission experiment     

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier with flattened gain spectrum

An optical notch filter was incorporated within the length of all erbium-doped fiber amplifier. Careful choice of the filter characteristics and location made it possible to enhance the amplifier gain at wavelengths around 1550 nm. An amplifier with 27-dB gain and 33-nm bandwidth was demonstrated. The saturation characteristics of the amplifier were uniform across its gain spectrum, making it ideal for wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) application.<>

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier with 54 dB gain and 3.1 dB noisefigures

It is shown that for practical pump powers (<100 mW) a combination of high gain (>33 dB) and low noise figure (3 dB) cannot simultaneously be achieved with a conventional codirectionally pumped EDFA. However, using a codirectionally pumped composite EDFA incorporating an isolator overcomes the problem, and an amplifier with 51 dB (54 dB) gain and 3.1 dB noise figure (NF) for only 45 mW (93 mW) of pump power is demonstrated     

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier second-order distortion in analog links and electronic compensation

The authors study the second-order distortion when an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is used to amplify the analog optical AM cable TV (CATV) multiple carrier signal from a directly modulated distributed feedback (DFB) semiconductor laser. Experimentally, it was seen that this second order distortion depends critically on the gain of the EDFA fiber amplifier. The authors attribute this distortion to the interaction between the frequency chirping of the DFB laser and the variable gain with wavelength of the amplifier. The authors describe an electronic predistorter that compensates the nonlinearity produced by the DFB-laser-EDFA combination. As a result, the high power advantage of the EDFA can be fully realized in spite of the potential for second-order distortion in the system.<>

Erbium-doped fiber amplifier pumped in the 950-1000 nm region

The pump wavelength dependence of the gain of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier pumped in the wavelength region 950-1000 nm is discussed. It is found that efficient gain at 1.557 μm, between 25 and 28 dB for 17 mW of launched pump power, can be obtained for any wavelength pump in the range 965-985 nm. The optimum length of erbium fiber needed is found to vary as a function of pump wavelength. The gain as a function of signal wavelength is also investigated at these pump wavelengths
