  2. All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifierOutline • Transient effects in Raman fibre amplifiers • Numerical simulations • Experimental verification • Conclusions ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium

  3. All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifierTransient effects in Raman fibreamplifiers • Optical amplifiers saturate on the total power basis • Channel addition/removal or transmission of packets in burst mode would result in output power fluctuations in other channels • Some measurements must be taken to eliminate unwanted output power fluctuations • Several schemes has been suggested for gain stabilization of EDFAs • For lumped Raman fibre amplifiers, the all-optical gain-clamping technique can be used ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium

  4. All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifierNumerical simulations • Propagation of signals, pumps and spectral components of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) is described by the following partial differential equation ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium

  5. All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifierNumerical simulations • The above equation represents a set of partial differential equations for down-stream and up-stream propagating optical powers P+(z,t,ν), P-(z,t,ν) contained in frequency slot Δν and describe their evolution in space (along the fibre axis), z and time t • P+(z,t,ν), P-(z,t,ν) represent the down-stream signals P+s(z,t,νs), up-stream pumps P-p(z,t,νp) and down-stream and up-stream ASE spectral components PASE(z,t,ν) • Vg(ν), (ν) and γ(ν) is the frequency dependent group velocity, fiber background loss, and the Rayleigh back scattering coefficient • gR(ν-ζ) is the Raman gain coefficient between waves with frequency ν andζ, Keff and Aeff ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium

  16. All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifierConclusions • Surviving channel power fluctuations in lumped RFA have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally • It has been shown, that when sufficient lasing is allowed, steady-state surviving channel power fluctuations may be completely eliminated • Remaining power surges are about 8 times lower than the steady-state power excursions without AOGC ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium
