A SCHEME FOR GAIN FLATTEN OF FIBRE RAMAN AMPLIFIER FOR WDM TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS

Abstract

The most attractive feature of Fiber Raman amplifiers are extremely large gain bandwidth and play an important role in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems. However, the weakness of Raman amplifier is that the gain spectrum is flat for very small narrowband. So, it is necessary to flatten the Raman gain profile to achieve the desire performance for the WDM systems. This paper has proposed an extrinsic gain flattening technique for WDM transmission systems using Polarization-diversity Loop Filter (PDLF). With this technique, an equalize bandwidth of 114nm (1536nm – 1650nm) can be achieved with a gain ripple of 0.5dB.
