    摘要: A fiber Raman amplifier is configured to use a co-propagating Raman pump source, which may be beneficial in a variety of system configurations (for example, in bidirectional communication systems). By carefully configuring the pump source characteristics, sufficient optical gain can be achieved in the co-propagating arrangement, the characteristics including: (1) using an optical pump power of at least 50mW, (2) having a relatively large spectral bandwidth within the pump (to suppress SBS); and (3) a frequency difference between all longitudinal pump modes of each pump laser being separated by at least the walk-off frequency between the pump laser frequency and the signal frequency, and all intense longitudinal modes between different pump lasers being separated by at least the electrical bandwidth of the communication system.

    摘要: Stimulated Brillouin scattering has been effectively suppressed and the effect of residual amplitude modulation has been mitigated in a dithered optical transmitter (11) by injecting the dithered optical signal into an optical device, such as a highly saturated amplifier (15), whose small-signal intensity response at the dither frequency dampens the residual amplitude modulation thereby decreasing the eye closure (alternatively, increasing the eye pattern opening). The optical device (15)(e.g., the highly saturated amplifier) exhibits a low frequency cutoff (-3dB) at a frequency greater than or equal to the inverse of the round trip time for a fiber span with the effective optical transmission length into which the optical signal power is launched. The dither rate is generally in the neighborhood of or below the low cutoff frequency.

    摘要: A technique for reducing the power threshold at which stimulated brillouin scattering ("SBS") occurs within an optical fiber by directly modulating a conventional laser generating an optical signal propagated along that fiber. The modulation is accomplished by employing an alternating waveform to induce a dither upon the laser output. The specific frequency of the alternating waveform is chosen to be very much lower than the low frequency cut-off of any receiver coupled to the optical fiber, but sufficiently high enough to efficiently suppress the Brillouin gain. This dithering causes the laser to be frequency modulated, thereby broadening the effective linewidth of the laser output and increasing the SBS power threshold.
