Gain clamping in single-pass and double-pass L-band erbium-doped fiber amplifiers
Gain clamping is demonstrated in single-pass and double-pass long wavelength band erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (L-band EDFAs). A C/L-band wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) coupler is used in single-pass system to generate a laser at 1566 nm. The gain for the amplifier is clamped at 15.5 dB wit...
