Abstract
Abstract
Large capacity optical networks require flattened gain spectrum and large gain bandwidth of the optical networks. In order to achieve this large number of hybrid optical amplifiers are designed. Here we proposed a competent flat gain hybrid optical amplifier with an optimum combination of Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) and Raman amplifier. Attempts are made to design a hybrid optical amplifier for 100 channels, 10 Gbps Super Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed (SDWDM) systems at different channel spacing of 0.1, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.8 nm. Work capacity of the network was compared on the basis of various parameters viz., gain and noise figure that determined the performance of the system. The gain spectrum of the hybrid optical amplifier depends upon the parameters viz., pump wavelength, pump power and laser input power of the amplifier. Various efforts were conceded out to optimize these parameters. It was found that for wavelength range 1,570.5–1,580.75 nm, a flat gain of 5.36 dB is achieved for input power of −15 dB with noise figure variation of 0.57 dB without using any gain flattering scheme. Being simple and cost effective, this hybrid optical amplifier could be recommended for gain flatness characteristics and acceptable noise figure for super dense wavelength division multiplexed system.
