Abstract
In this paper, a new technique of determining the location of a remotely-pumped Erbium doped fibre amplifier (R-EDFA) in unrepeatered transmission system is presented. The location of the R-EDFA is varied over the transmission span with its optimised pump power. The unrepeatered transmission link is optimised when the R-EDFA is located closer to the receiver end.
