A new three-stage quadruple pass (QP) EDFA is presented in this paper. The mathematical models for designing this proposed EDFA are developed. In the mathematical models, the effects of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) of prior stages are included. Performance analysis of this QP EDFA is carried...
