Multipump Raman Amplifier

1. VPIcomponentMaker™ Optical Amplifiers encapsulates sophisticated bidirectional algorithms for Raman amplifiers that provide stable and accurate solutions.
2. Intensive algorithm development effort at VPIphotonics™ has led to speed increases of 10x to 100x over earlier algorithms. This allows a much greater coverage of design space.
3. This example shows the design of a multipump optical amplifier to achieve gain flatness. The effect of WDM channel loading and power variations can be investigated using our Interactive Simulation controller and its Yield Estimation routine, together with our gain-flatness algorithms.
