An erbium-doped fiber ring laser is modeled by use of the standard propagation and rate equations of a homogeneous, two-level medium. A numerical model is obtained by development of a spectral analysis of erbiumdoped fiber amplifiers. This approach is modified to account for the cyclical propagation...
