Highly saturated EDFA for gain clamping operation

A highly saturated erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) that can be used for gain-clamping is demonstrated. This amplifier utilizes a short length of active fiber to provide a small but maximum gain and a high pump power to enhance the gain dynamic range. The gain for two simultaneous equal strength...
