Abstract
Abstract This paper aims to analyze the performance of FBG 60 channel wavelength-division multiplexing system using different optical amplifiers namely RAMAN, erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) and semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) separately at 10 Gbps data rate up to a fiber length of 280 km. Based upon the results, the performance of the three amplifiers has been compared on the basis of multiple performance parameters. It is seen that EDFA simulates good results in terms of bit error rate (BER) up to a fiber distance of approximately 80 km and Q factor up to a distance of approximately 90 km among all the three amplifiers. However, power received is least in EDFA. RAMAN amplifier provides a better Q factor after the fiber distance of approximately 90 km and a better BER after the fiber distance of approximately 80 km compared to the other three amplifiers. SOA shows better results in terms of power received up to a fiber distance of approximately 100 km. RAMAN amplifier provides better output power after a distance of 100 km. Eye diagrams and power spectrums of the network with different optical amplifiers has also been analyzed.
