Description
Summary:We demonstrate a remotely pumped L-band erbium-doped fiber amplifier for long-haul transmission system that consists of a multiwavelength dispersion compensator. In this proposed amplifier, the L-band signals experience double pass amplification using the multiwavelength dispersion compensator as signal reflector. In addition, the distributed Raman amplification helps to improve the gain flatness of the propagated signals that is pumped by a 1497 nm fiber laser. High average transmission gain of 20.64 dB with low gain flatness of 2.64 dB is attained when the input signal power is at 0 dB m with wavelength ranging from 1570.45 to 1604.92 nm. The proposed amplifier structure offers better transmission gain flatness for multiwavelength systems.
