Single-Fiber Bi-Directional Burst-Mode EDFA for TWDM-PON

In this paper, we propose a single-fiber bi-directional burst-mode erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) to simultaneously improve upstream and downstream loss budget in time and wavelength division multiplexed-passive optical network (TWDM-PON). Instead of additional light sources for upstream gain c...
