Abstract:
The fiber nonlinear effects on
the gain of fiber optical parametric
amplifier (FOPA) are theoretically
studied using MATLAB and optism. The
results show that different channels
interact giving varied degrees of
polarization (DOP) at different channel
spacing. It is also found out that the
parametric gain increase with the
increase in nonlinear parameter and fiber
length. This study is of great
significance in improving the
transmission capacity of a long haul
system and dense wavelength division
multiplexing.
