Research on pulse edge extraction by using nonlinear optical fiber-loop mirror

The output characteristics of nonlinear optical fiber-loop mirror are analyzed in detail when the pump pulses with the same wavelength are input in the both directions for recovering the clock component of the signal spectrum.It is found that the double output pulses are produced in the transmission port of the nonlinear optical fiber-loop mirror.The output pulse peaks are located in time domain at the rising and falling edges of the pump pulses.It is demonstrated that the rising and falling edges of the pump pulse can be directly extracted by this method.Through numerical simulation,the effects of therelative delay of pump pulses and the dispersion of fiber on the characteristics of output pulses are studied.By spectrum analysis,it is found that the spectrum of output pulse sequence includes the clock components of the pump pulse sequence,and a new idea is provided for all-optical clock extraction.

Passive equalization of nonuniform EDFA gain by optical filteringfor megameter transmission of 20 WDM channels through a cascade ofEDFA's

Through the incorporation of optical filters in a cascade of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFA's), with each amplifier exhibiting nonuniform gain, we determine the optimal conditions for passively equalizing many wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) channels while maintaining a high SNR. For 20 WDM channels spaced 0.5 nm apart, it is found that 3-dB, 2-nm-wide notch filters with center wavelength at 1.560 μm will provide sufficient SNR equalization for potential megameter transmission when located after every 20 EDFA's. This performance is achieved with no a priori knowledge of the input or output signals     

S-band single-stage EDFA with 25-dB gain using distributed ASE suppression

We propose a novel compact design for a single-stage S-band erbium-doped fiber amplifier, wherein distributed suppression of C-band amplified spontaneous emission is provided by optimized bend loss in a coaxial core fiber. Simulations show that /spl sim/25-dB unsaturated gain over 30-nm bandwidth (1495-1525) nm is achievable with the designed module, using a nominal pump power of 500 mW. The noise figure of the amplifier varies between 4.5 and 8 dB from 1495 to 1525 nm. By proper designing, we have also ensured that the gain ripple over the entire 30-nm bandwidth is 相似文献

Evaluation of nonuniform WDM source spacing for EDFA gaincharacterization

The accuracy of erbium-doped fiber amplifier gain characterization tests has been evaluated using reduced sets of wavelength-division-multiplexing laser sources. Wavelength grids with both uniform and nonuniform wavelength spacing have been evaluated. Experiments show that it is necessary to maintain equal spectral density of source power per region in order to operate at the same saturation/inversion conditions of the amplifier. By doing so, acceptable results were obtained for a laser configuration with 400-800-GHz nonuniform spacing, employing 12 lasers

Tunable coherent optical transversal EDFA gain equalization

In this paper, we propose a fiber amplifier gain equalizer using a coherent optical transversal filter. The gain equalizer is tunable and has a bandwidth in the order of 30 nm. We also study the effects of different parameters such as input signal power pattern and the input pump power on the gain profile of the amplifier. The results show that, when the input signal power pattern changes, the amplifier does not maintain its gain profile. The gain profile has to be maintained in order to make the gain equalization effective. We show that, the pump input power can be adjusted so that the changes in the gain profile are compensated for. The gain profile varies quite slowly, hence compensation is feasible. As an example, we discuss the design of a gain equalizer for a system consisting of seven wavelength channels     

WDM EDFA gain characterization with a reduced set of saturating channels

The advent of EDFA-based dense WDM places demanding optical source requirements for EDFA characterization. An iterative method is proposed here, based on a homogeneous amplifier model, to calculate the required signal conditions for WDM testing with a reduced set of saturating channels and a broad-band noise probe. EDFA gain measurements demonstrating this reduced-source technique agree to within 0.2 dB to those obtained with a four-channel WDM system operating near 1.55 /spl mu/m.

A model for the prediction of EDFA gain in a space radiation environment

Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) were irradiated with /sup 60/Co /spl gamma/-rays up to a total dose of 3 kGy. Gain measurements and 1310-nm absorption were achieved during the irradiation to characterize the radiation-induced damage on the fiber. A model based on classical equations was developed to perform accurate predictions of the effects of radiation on EDFAs. This model was shown to be consistent with the experiment at various dose rates and temperatures, therefore allowing the extrapolation to a space environment simulation.
