| Summary: | Many configurations of EDFA producing triple
pass EDFAs have been used, however, only two
configurations are commonly used in the optical fiber
communication system due to their high performance.
Those two configurations are configured in a double stage
EDFA. The first configuration is (configuration A) consists
of a single-pass EDFA as the first stage and a double-pass
EDFA as the second stage. The second configuration is
(Configuration B) which consists of a double-pass EDFA as
the first stage and a single-pass EDFA as the second stage.
The Literature shows the use of triple pass EDFA is either
with configuration A or configuration B and literature also
shows there is no theoretical analysis and comparison
between the performance of two Triple-pass EDFA
configurations A and B. This paper focus on the
performance analysis of both configurations A and B. The
importantance of this research is the theoretical analyses
that analyze the performance of those two configurations
and illustrate a comparison between them. This
comparison is important to show which of the two
configurations is more reliable in amplifying optical signal
for the fiber optic communication systems. |
