February 2-4, 2004ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium3 Optical amplifiers saturate on the total power basis Channel addition/removal or transmission of packets in burst mode would result in output power fluctuations in other channels Some measurements must be taken to eliminate unwanted output power fluctuations Several schemes has been suggested for gain stabilization of EDFAs For lumped Raman fibre amplifiers, the all-optical gain-clamping technique can be used All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifier Transient effects in Raman fibre amplifiers

February 2-4, 2004ONDM 04, Ghent, Belgium5 The above equation represents a set of partial differential equations for down-stream and up-stream propagating optical powers P + (z,t,ν), P - (z,t,ν) contained in frequency slot Δν and describe their evolution in space (along the fibre axis), z and time t P + (z,t,ν), P - (z,t,ν) represent the down-stream signals P + s (z,t,ν s ), up-stream pumps P - p (z,t,ν p ) and down-stream and up-stream ASE spectral components P ASE (z,t,ν) V g (ν), (ν) and γ(ν) is the frequency dependent group velocity, fiber background loss, and the Rayleigh back scattering coefficient g R (ν-ζ) is the Raman gain coefficient between waves with frequency ν and ζ, K eff and A eff All-optical gain-controlled lumped Raman fibre amplifier Numerical simulations
