摘要:
In a fiber optic transmission system comprising line fiber and a pump for distributed amplification in the line fiber by stimulated Raman scattering, the line fiber comprises multiple sections and the nature of the fibers in each section and the length of each section are chosen so that the Raman gain is lower than the Rayleigh backscattering coefficient at all points of the system. This avoids the limitations that are experienced if the Raman gain is greater than the Rayleigh backscattering coefficient.

The invention relates to a system for injecting into a fiber signals from multiple sources at different wavelengths. The signals from each source are injected into the fiber by a circulator. The circulators of the various sources are cascaded. Reflector means for reflecting signals from sources previously injected are provided between each source and its circulator. The invention is used to inject signals from multiple sources without the injection of signals from one source attenuating signals from sources previously injected. It applies in particular to Raman amplification, for which purpose it provides a multiband source without attenuation between bands. Multiband amplifications is achieved without loss of gain between bands.

The invention concerns a method for monitoring an optical waveguide between a monitoring terminal point and a monitoring unit, in which an optical data signal from a transmitter, and for amplification, pump light from a pump laser, is emitted into the optical waveguide, wherein a monitoring signal transmitted by the monitoring unit is returned via the same waveguide to the monitoring unit by a reflection device located at the monitoring terminal point, in particular a Bragg grating placed in the optical waveguide, and wherein the reflection device is tuned to a reflection that is exactly the wavelength of the monitoring signal, as well as a monitoring system and a monitoring unit for said Method.
