Abstract
We demonstrate that the Fabry-Perot and the rate equation methods used in semiconductor optical amplifiers modeling are strictly equivalent provided calculation of the mirror losses is reconsidered in the latter approach. We show that the saturation input power is generally overestimated with the rate equation approach because the mirror losses are incorrectly calculated.
