Self-saturation of amplified spontaneous emission in a fiber amplifier

The dependence of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) performance on amplifier self-saturation is studied by tuning the pump wavelength over a 5 nm band centered at 980 nm. Gain and noise figure are degraded at the peak pump absorption wavelength, which shows the strongest effect of amplifier self-s...
