  • The optical fibers are an interesting medium for effective tunable optical frequency conversion in the spectral range of UV, Visible, and near-IR through the nonlinear processes. A number of papers for developing the wideband and flat-gain amplifier for the WDM system applications through the combination of EDFA or thulium-doped fluoride fiber amplifier and Raman amplifier, are reported$^{(1)}$ . Even though a variety of papers related to Raman amplifications are published, the amplification with the feedback of the residual pump is not investigated yet. Accordingly, in this paper, we report the characteristics of forward Raman amplification by the simple and double-pass fiber Raman configuration through the feedback of residual pump beam. (omitted)

  • Erbium첨가 광섬유 증폭기에서 증폭된 자연방출광(ASE) 출력의 일부를 대역투과 파장 필터를 거쳐 입력단으로 루프 귀환시켜 광증폭기를 특정 파장에서 발진시킴으로써 신호광에 대한 증폭 이득을 일정치에 고정시켰다. 증폭 이득과 ASE 출력 스펙트럼은 광증폭기가 발진하는한 입력광 power나 펌프광 power의 변화에 대하여 무관하였으며 귀환 루프의 손실에만 의존하였다. 또한 광증폭기에 저속으로 변조된 대신호가 입사하는 경우에도 이득포화에 의한 파형 왜곡없이 증폭이 가능하였다.

  • We demonstrate a simulation of a parallel hybrid fiber amplifier in the C+L-band with a gain controlling technique. A variable optical coupler is used to control the input signal power for both EDFA and RFA branches. The gain spectra of the C+L-band are flattened by optimizing the coupling ratio of the input signal power. In order to enhance the pump conversion efficiency, the EDFA branch was pumped by the residual Raman pump power. A gain bandwidth of 60 nm from 1530 nm to 1590 nm is obtained with large input signal power less than -5 dBm. The gain variation is about 1.06 dB at a small input signal power of -30 dBm, and it is reduced to 0.77 dB at the large input signal power of -5 dBm. The experimental results show close agreement with the simulation results.

  • Optical Time Domain Reflectometry를 이용하여 수백 km 이상의 장거리 광통신망을 감시하기 위해서는 감시광을 증폭시켜야한다. 본 논문에서는 1625 nm OTDR 감시광을 증폭시키기 위해 fiber Bragg grating과 band pass filter를 이용하여 이득과 잡음지수를 각각 5.1 dB 그리고 0.9 dB 향상시킨 2단 구조의 Extended L-band EDFA를 제안하였다. 제안된 Extended L-band EDFA의 1625 nm 대역의 신호 이득은 16.3 dB이고 잡음지수는 7.1 dB였다.

  • In multifiber all-optical networks, optical amplifiers are used for amplifying multiple optical signals with different wavelengths in fibers. An optical amplifier operates when any of lightpaths passes through it. Therefore, it should simultaneously amplify as many lightpaths as possible for efficiently utilizing its power. This paper proposes a dynamic lightpath establishment scheme considering the use efficiency of the optical amplifiers and the depletion of the wavelength resources in multifiber all-optical networks. The proposed scheme provides a routing and wavelength assignment strategy that reduces both the power consumption of the optical amplifiers and the blocking probability of the lightpath establishment. Through simulation experiments, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

  • We propose and experimentally demonstrate a simple tunable photonic microwave band-pass filter with high resolution using a reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) and an optical time-delay line. The RSOA is used as a gain medium for generating cross-gain modulation (XGM) effect as well as an optical source. The optical source provides narrow spectral width by self-injection locking the RSOA in conjunction with a partial reflection filter with specific center wavelength. Then, when the RSOA is operated in the saturation region and the modulated recursive signal is injected into the RSOA, the recursive signal is inversely copied to the injection locked optical source due to the XGM effect. Also, the tunability of the passband of the proposed microwave filter is shown by controlling an optical time-delay line in a recursive loop.
