Analysis on three different coupling systems, i.e., butt, single ball lens, and two ball lenses was carried out to study their effect in pigtailing a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) module. By placing the coupling system between the tips of two coupled single mode fiber parameters such as coup...
