We demonstrate two pumping scheme for thulium-doped fiber amplifier (TDFA) by using OptiSys v. 13 that is spanning from 1770 nm to 1970 nm; providing all the results represented in the figures. Higher gain is achieved in the single stage TDFA however high output power is achieved in the distributed...
