Abstract

An analytical approach is presented to estimate the amplified performance of a multichannel wavelength division multiplexing for optical transmission system. In order to gain power amplification with low noise figure, EDFAs are used. Since the gain bandwidth of EDFA is restricted to 35 nm wave-length of pumping, an additional amplifier has to be used as hybrid amplifier. In this paper, a system of multichannel WDM configuration of Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers without using Raman Amplifier and with Raman Amplifier are simulated, compared and analysed. In this investigation Raman amplifiers is being used beside the high-output-power of EDFA, for pumping, to improve performance. The study is based on the amplifier’s parameters, pumping wavelength and pumping power. To expand the proportions of light wave transmission, provide high capacity and raise flexibility of optical network technology the features of both amplifiers can perform together. An implementation of nonlinear photonics is illustrated by distributed Raman fiber amplification to enhance by accepting evolutionary change forward in fiber optic communication.
