摘要:
An optical fiber holding apparatus in accordance with the present invention is characterized in that the same comprises a surface in order to hold an optical fiber which is to be a state of which is rolled up so as not to overlap with each other, wherein at least the surface is formed of a thermo conductive molding body which has a thermal conductivity to be higher than or equal to 0.5 W/mK, and which has an Asker C hardness to be between twenty and fifty. Or, the same comprises a peripheral surface in order to roll up and hold an optical fiber, wherein at least the peripheral surface is formed of a thermo conductive molding body which has the thermal conductivity to be higher than or equal to 0.5 W/mK, and which has the Asker C hardness to be between twenty and fifty. Moreover, it is desirable for the thermo conductive molding body to have a compressive strength of which a peak value is between ten and thirty N/cm2 and a stabilized value is between three and ten N/cm2. Furthermore, it is desirable for the thermo conductive molding body to have the thermal conductivity to be higher than or equal to 1.0 W/mK and to have the Asker C hardness to be between twenty-five and forty.

An optical transmission fiber is formed to include a relatively low-index, relatively thin outer cladding layer disposed underneath the protective polymer outer coating. Stray light propagating along an inner cladding layer(s) within the fiber will be refracted into the thin outer cladding (by proper selection of refractive index values). The thin dimension of the outer cladding layer allows for the stray light to “leak” into the outer coating in a controlled, gradual manner so as to minimize heating of the coating associated with the presence of stray light. The inventive fiber may also be bent to assist in the movement of stray light into the coating.

An optical fiber for Raman amplification amplifies a signal light with a pumping light. A chromatic dispersion at a wavelength of 1,550 nm is in a range between −70 ps/nm/km and −30 ps/nm/km. Raman gain efficiency with a pumping light of 1,450 nm is equal to or more than 5 (W×km)−1. Nonlinear coefficient at the wavelength of 1,550 nm is equal to or less than 5.0×10−9 W−1. Zero-dispersion wavelength is neither at a wavelength of the signal light nor at a wavelength of the pumping light. Cut-off wavelength is equal to or less than the wavelength of the pumping light.

An optical transmission system is provided in which a plurality of Raman amplifiers are combined so that the wavelength band of a first Raman amplifier in the form of an upward convex curve including the maximum gain value and the wavelength band of a second Raman amplifier in the form of a downward convex curve including the minimum gain value overlap with each other, and that the wavelength band of the first Raman amplifier in the form of a downward convex curve including the minimum gain value and the wavelength band of the second Raman amplifier in the form of an upward convex curve including the maximum gain value overlap with each other. This arrangement also applies to cases where three or more amplifiers are used. Due to this arrangement, an optical transmission system is realized in which it is possible to attain a reduction in Raman gain flatness without using any means such as an equalizer.

In a Raman optical amplification system in which WDM optical signals comprising two or more signal bands are transmitted in a transmission line, and in which a plurality of pumping lightwaves are introduced into said transmission line so that WDM optical signals in the shortest signal band are Raman-amplified by said plurality of pumping lightwaves, the interval between the longest pumping wavelength and the next-longest pumping wavelength differs by 0.2 to 1.4 THz in frequency. This makes it possible to flatten the level of the WDM signals by means of canceling the Raman gain ripple on the longer wavelength region of the distributed amplification.
