    Abstract: The present invention relates to a broadband optical amplifier configured to optically amplify an optical signal which is received at an amplifier input port and which comprises first spectral components lying within a predetermined first optical band and second spectral components lying within a predetermined second optical band, and to output the amplified optical signal to an amplifier output port. The present invention furthermore relates to a method for designing a broadband optical amplifier comprising the steps of creating a mathematical model of the broadband optical amplifier, determining the efficiency-optimized design of the reference broadband optical amplifier, determining a maximum value of the wavelength-dependent noise figure of the reference broadband optical amplifier, determining a modified design and using the modified design for setting up a corresponding physical broadband optical amplifier.
