Performance of four-stage cascaded fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA) using optisystem

An optical fiber plays a significant role to cater the increasing transmission capacity. In optical fiber, there is a few nonlinear effects. One of the nonlinear effects is four-wave mixing (FWM). In-depth analysis of FWM is conducted and it is found that one of the applications in the FWM is a fibe...

The passive components selected are isolator and optical bandpass filter (OBPF). The results show that the FOPA with pump dithering can achieved the gain up to 27 dB, while without pump dithering, only 9 dB gain is achieved. For the performance of the cascaded FOPA with isolators, a high gain of 30 dB is obtained, while the cascaded FOPA with OBPFs, a wider bandwidth of 36 nm is obtained. In conclusion, the pump dithering and isolator can be used to achieved a high gain of FOPA and OBPF can be used to obtain a wider bandwidth of FOPA. 2017-07 Thesis http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/780/ http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/780/1/24p%20FATIN%20NABILAH%20MOHAMAD%20SALLEH.pdf text en public http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/780/2/FATIN%20NABILAH%20MOHAMAD%20SALLEH%20COPYRIGHT%20DECLARATION.pdf text en staffonly http://eprints.uthm.edu.my/780/3/FATIN%20NABILAH%20MOHAMAD%20SALLEH%20WATERMARK.pdf text en validuser mphil masters Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia Fakulti Kejuruteraan Elektrik dan Elektronik
