Abstract

Ytterbium doping provides high capacity for producing large gain per unit length, and versatility in pump optimization for a given gain length .The paper presents gain characteristic of Ytterbium doped Fiber Amplifier in terms of amplifier length, Yb ion density, pump power and signal power at pump wavelength λp =910 nm and signal wave length λs =975 nm s. A maximum gain of (39, 37 and 33dB) obtained for pump powers (150, 100 and 50 mw). The gain occurs over short length (tenth of centimeters) of the amplifier and increase with increasing Yb ion density. It begins to be moderately saturated when ion concentration exceeds 1.3 e+025. After certain pump power gain values become saturated while it decreases rapidly by increasing signal power. As a result of laboratories unavailability in the region the layout done by using Optisystem 8.0 software simulation (Optical Amplifier and Communication System Design Software)
