ASE Spectral Slice Gain-Clamping of EDFA
An erbium-doped fiber amplifier operating in the C-band is gain clamped, at about 26 dB with noise figures below 6 dB by multiple fiber Bragg gratings. These gratings are placed at the amplifier output with center wavelengths in between communication channels so that unwanted amplified spontaneous e...
