EDFA gain optimization for WDM system

The gain flatness of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is a key device for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) application in modern optical network systems. The purpose of this paper is to correct the gain non-uniformity for each channel in order to equalize the amplitude gain in a wavelength...
