Abstract
A 16 element wavelength division multiplexed linear array of distributed feedback fibre lasers (DFB FL), pumped at 980nm is reported. The array incorporates DFB FL technology specifically developed for optimal array multiplexing performance. This technology has important applications to all-optical underwater acoustic sensing. An overview of key technical issues in DFB FL multiplexing is also included.
