Abstract

A novel wideband erbium-doped fiber amplifier utilizing a bidirectional amplification of conventional- and long-wavelength band signals is presented. Amplification of a four-channel wavelength-division multiplexing system (two channels for each band) is successfully demonstrated, with an average gain of 20 dB and a noise figure less than 7.5 dB.
