Abstract :
We point out the limitation of using an approximate gain profile in designing distributed fiber Raman amplifier (FRA) and design a broadband FRA based on the measured gain profile. A design of discrete amplifiers for ultra-long-haul transmission is also reported by optimizing the combination of DCF and SMF fibers.
