Wide Bandwidth Raman Amplifier Having A Substantially Flat Gain Profile
View pageUS Patent:
6486466, Nov 26, 2002
Filed:
Apr 28, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/301436
Inventors:
Howard Kidorf - Red Bank NJ
Assignee:
Tyco Telecommunications (US) Inc. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
G01B 910
US Classification:
25022723, 359345
Abstract:
A Raman amplifier is provided that includes at least a portion of optical fiber in which an optical signal travels. The optical fiber portion may encompass all or part of the optical transmission path of an optical communication system. A pump energy unit is provided that includes at least three pump sources providing pump power at different pump wavelengths. The different pump wavelengths are spaced apart from one another by nonuniform amounts so that a prescribed Raman gain profile is generated in the optical fiber portion. An optical coupler is provided for coupling the pump power to the optical fiber portion and transmitting the optical signal therethrough.

Assignee:
Tyco Telecommunications (US) Inc. - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
H04B 1017
US Classification:
398178, 398 67, 398180
Abstract:
A lightwave communication system is provided that includes first and second optical transmitters/receivers remotely located with respect to one another. First and second optical transmission paths couple the first transmitter/receiver to the second transmitter/receiver for bidirectionally transmitting optical information therebetween. First and second doped optical fibers are respectively disposed in the first and second optical transmission paths. Optical pump energy is supplied by first and second optical pump sources. The first optical pump source generates Raman gain in the first transmission path and the second optical pump source generates Raman gain in the second transmission path. A first optical coupler is provided for optically coupling pump energy from the first pump source to the second-doped optical fiber and a second optical coupler is provided for optically coupling pump energy from the second pump source to the first doped optical fiber.

Assignee:
TyCom (US) Inc., - Morristown NJ
International Classification:
H01S 330
US Classification:
372 3
Abstract:
A Raman amplifier is provided that includes at least a portion of optical fiber in which an optical signal travels. The optical fiber portion may encompass all or part of the optical transmission path of an optical communication system. A pump energy unit is provided that includes first and second pump sources providing pump power at first and second wavelengths, respectively. The first and second wavelengths generate first and second gain profiles in the optical fiber portion. The first and second gain profiles overlap in wavelength. An optical coupler couples the pump power to the optical fiber portion. Since the gain profiles overlap, the Raman amplifier has a greater bandwidth than can be achieved with a pump operating at a single wavelength.
