Abstract

320km optical transmission link for 128 channel DWDM (dense wavelength-division-multiplexing) signals is simulated and fabricated. An optical fiber amplifier for the link is composed of a distributed Raman amplifier and dual C/L-band EDFAs which are optimized for the performances of an optical amplifier obtained from the simulation. Gain and NF of the optimized EDFAs are above 19dB and below 7.5dB, respectively. The resultant OSNRs (optical signal to noise ratios) of the link are average 25dB on each band.

128 채널 고밀도 파장다중화 광신호들을 위한 320km 광전송 링크가 시뮬레이션으로 계산되고 실험으로 구현되었다. 이 링크에서 사용된 광섬유 증폭기은 분산형 라만 증폭기와 C 대역과 L 대역을 함께 증폭시킬 수 있는 이중 대역 EDFA가 함께 고려되어 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 링크의 특성이 계산되었다. 여기서 계산된 값을 구현할 수 있도록 증폭기의 구조가 최적화되고 이 구조가 모듈로 제작되었다. 제작된 증폭기를 사용하여 구현된 링크에서 측정된 320km 거리에서의 광신호잡음비는 각 대역에서 평균 25dB였고 이는 처음 링크 계산 시에 의도된 값과 잘 일치하였다.
