Analysis of 2-Stage Erbium Doped Fibre Amplifier with Optimum Parameters

The objective is to design an erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) for the speed enhancement. For designing of the EDFA network two software are required to find out the parameters of EDFA optical amplifier. The design evaluates the performance of the network for a given pattern specifies the design accessibility for the speed enhancement. A network planner needs to optimize the various electrical and optical parameters to ensure smooth operations of a wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) network. Most conventional network layer planners do not care about the heuristics of the optical layer. However, such lapses can often be catastrophic. Until the bit rate and the transmission distance is under some bounded constraint (for example, small networks), it is often not important to consider the optical parameters. However, as the bit rate increases and transmission length increases, these optical parameters have the capability of playing important role in the network. A network planner must consider the affecting parameters and build a network that accommodates the impairments caused by the optical parameters.
