Abstract

The theory of Raman amplification is briefly reviewed together with the definition of Noise-Figure for distributed amplification. Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers and Raman Amplifiers are compared on the basis of their non-linear impact. An optimal configuration for Hybrid Raman/Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier is derived for the design of multi-span systems. Results obtained through the analytical formalisms are compared with accurate simulation results.
