Abstract

L-band gain improvement through usage of secondary pumping sources in the form of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) was conducted. Gain improvement as high as 6dB was achieved. However, pumping the system directly with ASE would inevitably incur noise Fig. penalty; in this case as much as 1 dB. For a system utilizing ASE to improve L-band amplification, pumping the system counter-directionally with ASE while 980 or 1480 nm pump is used in co-propagating manner would yield the best overall system performance.
