Abstract:CONCLUSIONSBased on summaries and comparisons of the existing analysis methods for multipath interference (MPI) in distributed fiber Raman amplifiers, two novel methods are presented. A simple analytical expression is developed in the first method. Its accuracy is higher than a foregoing analogous analytic expression. The second method iterates an analytic expression so that the MPI calculation time can be greatly reduced and the precision can be greatly improved by contrast with the preceding iterating method… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
