全光增益钳制掺铒光纤放大器增益与噪声指数的实验研究.pdf

vi Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) has become the maturest optical amplifier and widely applied for the optical fiber communications systems, especially for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) system, because of its advantages such as low noise figure (NF), high gain, wide bandwidth, high pump efficiency and steady performance. The EDFAs applied in WDM systems must have the performance of dynamic gain control and gain equalization. With the ceaseless increasing of the number of WDM channels and the unceasing improvement of the transmission speed, the EDFAs are required more and more bandwidth, so the conventional wavelength band (C band, 1525nm 1560nm) couldn’t meet the need of the transmission, so the correlative research of the long wavelength band (L band, 1565nm1610nm) and C plus L band EDFA becomes more and more important. The paper focuses on the experiment research about the dynamic gain control, improving the gain bandwidth, enhancing the gain efficiency and reduces the NF and so on, vii and researching the practical EDFAs. The paper sets out from the fundamental theory model of the EDFA, and educes its characteristics such as gain, bandwidth, NF and dynamic gain control. Based on the optimization of these characteristics, we went on six experiment researches, including the all optical gain control of the C band and L band EDFA and C plus L band EDFA, the improvement of L band EDFA’s gain efficiency, and reducing NF of these EDFAs.
