EDFA Gain and Noise Figure Measurements at Filter Edges Using a Broadband Source

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We report a low-cost, accurate EDFA gain and noise figure characterization method using a broadband ASE source and a transmission filter, by extracting the slope and intercept of output versus input power at filter edges. The required filter depth is 30dB.
