In this paper, the optimum pump light powers of optical phase conjugator(OPC) are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing in 1,200 km $8{\times}40$ Gbps WDM systems with 0.1, 0.4, 0.8, or 1.6 ps/nm/km dispersion coefficient. It is confirmed that the variation of optimal pump light power dependence on amplifier spacing for NRZ transmission system is smaller than that for RZ transmission system through the evaluations and analysis of eye opening penalty(EOP) characteristics. And, in both cases of NRZ and RZ transmission, the variation of optimal pump light power is more increased as amplifier spacing becomes longer. Additionally, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is 50 km.

In this paper, bit error rate (BER) characteristics, sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are numerically investigated as a function of amplifier spacing that consisted of 1,200 km WDM systems with MSSI method. It is conformed that the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are gradually degraded as amplifier spacings are gradually expanded, but those are not largely affected by modulation format. The sensitivity of RZ transmission system is smaller than that of NRZ transmission system, but minimum allowable launching power of NRZ transmission system is smaller than that of RZ transmission system. And, it is confirmed that the best amplifier spacing in NRZ and RZ transmission system is less than 50 km, because the sensitivity and minimum allowable launching power are less affected by fiber dispersion, channel wavelength and pump light power.

This paper discribes the nonlinear distortion of a pHEMT power amplifier. In the paper, we have used some commercially available power amplifiers for analyzing the relationship between the $IMD_3$ and ACPR for wireless LAN. And the $IMD_3$ results using two-tone test have been compared with ACPR to satisfy the requited 802.11g standard ACPR value. Measurement result shows that $IMD_3$ of 20MHz tone-spacing need to be more than 18.45dBc for power amplifiers. The WCDMA signal is fed into the power amplifier, for analyzing relationship between the asymmetrical $IMD_3$ and ACLR. With measurement result, the asymmetrical $IMD_3$ characteristic has increased with the increase of two-tone spacing. $IMD_3$ measurement result with maximum 20MHz of the two-tone spacing, shows that the difference between $IMD_3(lower)$ and $IMD_3(upper)$ is about 7dB. And the measured ACLR shows 5dB difference at -4MHz and +4MHz offset from center frequency.

The structure of a high-power gain-flattened long wavelength band (L-band) optical amplifier was optimized, which was implemented for 64-channel wavelength division multiplexed optical signals with a channel spacing of 50 GHz. The output characteristics of this L-band amplifier were measured and analyzed. The amplifier of the optimized two-stage amplification configuration had a flattened gain of 20 dB within 1 dB deviation between 1570 and 1600 nm for -2 dBm input power condition. The noise figure under this condition was minimized to within 6 dB in the amplification bandwidth. The gain flattening was realized by considering only the characteristics of gain medium in the amplifier without using additional optical or electrical devices. The proposed amplifier consisted of two stages of amplification stages, each of which was based on the erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) structure. The erbium-doped fiber length and pumping structures in each stage of the amplifier were optimized through experiments.

For the first time, a novel analytical model of the net gain for a Raman-EDFA hybrid optical amplifier (HOA) is proposed and its various parameters optimized using a genetic algorithm. Our method has been shown to be robust in the simultaneous analysis of multiple parameters (Raman length, EDFA length, and pump powers) to obtain large gain. The optimized HOA is further investigated at the system level for the scenario of a 50-channel DWDM system with 0.2-nm channel spacing. With an optimized HOA, a flat gain of >17 dB is obtained over the effective ITU-T wavelength grid with a variation of less than 1.5 dB, without using any gain-flattening technique. The obtained noise figure is also the lowest value ever reported for a Raman-EDFA HOA at reduced channel spacing.

This paper proposes an optical transmission link design method based on an optimum compensation scheme using dispersion compensating fiber (DCF), so that high-speed long-distance optical transmission would be possible over the conventional standard single mode fiber (SMF) link. The proposed design method provides the maximized transmission distances according to the signal speeds, where the amplifier spacing and repeater spacing are optimized wit respect to self-phase modulation(SPM) due to fiber nonlinearity and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noises caused by optical amplifies. It is also shown that there exists an optimum input signal power range balancing the effects of ASE noise and SPM for the given amplifier spacing and repeater spacing.

In this paper, we identify the memory effect of high power(125W) laterally diffused metal oxide-semiconductor(LDMOS) RF Power Amplifier(PA) by two tone IMD measurement. We measure two tone IMD by changing the tone spacing and the power level. Different asymmetric IMD is founded at different center frequency measurements. We propose the Tapped Delay Line-Neural Network(TDNN) technique as the modeling method of LDMOS PA based on two tone IMD data. TDNN's modeling accuracy is highly reasonable compared to the memoryless adaptive modeling method.

For multi parameter optimization of Raman Fiber Amplifier (RFA), a simple genetic algorithm is presented in the scenario of a 320 channel Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexed (DWDM) system at channel spacing of 25 GHz. The large average gain (> 22 dB) is observed from optimized RFA with the optimized parameters, such as 39.6 km of Raman length with counter-propagating pumps tuned to 205.5 THz and 211.9 THz at pump powers of 234.3 mW, 677.1 mW respectively. The gain flattening filter (GFF) has also been optimized to further reduce the gain ripple across the frequency range from 190 to 197.975 THz for broadband amplification.

In this paper, a new power amplifier is proposed for reduction of amplified RX band noise signals as well as intermodulation distortion signals using feedforward technique. This power amplifier is implemented for IMT-2000 basestation TX frequency band. Both TX band intermodulation distortion signals and RX band noise signals are reduced by controlling variable attenuator, phase shifter and error amplifier. The proposed power amplifier, which contains two loops-intermodulation distortion signals cancellation loop and RX band noise signals cancellation loop, can provide duplexer with low TX path insertion loss for various wireless communication systems due to choice of loose RX attenuation characteristic. The principle of the proposed amplifier is described graphically based on the conceptual schematic diagram. A two-tone test for power amplifier is done at 2.14GHz with frequency spacing of 5MHz, and RX band rejection test is done over RX full band of 60MHz with 1.95GHz center frequency. Experimental results represent that the cancellation performance of intermodulation distortion signals and RX band noise signals are more than 3 1dB and 21dB, respectively.
