An enhanced short wavelength band brillouin erbium fiber laser (S-band BEFL) is demonstrated using an additional Erbium Doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) in the sub-loop of the laser system. Compared with the conventional BEFL without the EDFA, the enhanced BEFL has improved the number of channels as wel...
