“…The proposed model under study with optimized values of FS, EDF length and Temperature at different pump powers has been compared with a previous model proposed by other authors [12]. Firstly, the eye diagrams at data receivers of both models have been introduced using the same initial setting as shown in Figure 5.…”

“…In the last decade, remarkable contributions have been made by researchers in using Erbium Doped Fibers Amplifiers (EDFA) for conventional C band optical communication (1530nm-1565nm), since EDFAs offer high capacity, long-lifespan and multiple connection of optical communication network applications [12]. EDFAs also are designed to lessen the effects of dispersion and attenuation, which allows improved performance for long-haul optical systems [3].…”

In this paper, Gain Flatness and Noise Figure of Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) have been investigated in 16-channels Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM). Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) is used in C-band with the aim to achieve flat EDFA output gain. The proposed model has been studied in detail to evaluate and to enhance the performance of the transmission system in terms of gain, noise figure and eye diagram of the received signals. To that end, various design parameters have been investigated and optimized, such as frequency spacing, EDF length and temperature. To enhance the transmission system performance in terms of gain flatness, the Gain Flattening Filter (GFF) has been introduced in the design. To prove the efficiency of the new design, the optical transmission system with optimized design parameters has been compared with a previous works in the literature. The simulation results show satisfactory performance with quasi-equalized gain for each channel of the WDM transmission system. Keyword:EDFA FBG GFF WDM

The gain flattening of erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is essential for their application in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system. This paper attempts to design and analyse a 32 channels WDM system using EDFA in the wavelength range of 1546 to 1560 nm with channel spacing of 0.4 nm. The analysis is made for the data rate of 10 Gb/s of NRZ signal. The gain flattening of EDFA in such system is achieved through EDFA's pump power and input power variation. Results show that the gains are flattened within 43.6 ± 0.8 dB with noise figure about 7.38 dB at pump power of 600 mW and input power of -34 dBm using optimized erbium doped fiber of 6.2 m length. The performance analysis in terms of BER, eye diagram and Q factor shows satisfactory results.
