Abstract

Fiber grating-pair is one of the efficient methods for gain stabilization of erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) but with a gain-reduction of signals, especially in C-band. In order to overcome it, in this article, we establish a configuration of EDFA based uniform fiber grating-pair and conduct a comprehensive study on gain stabilization by varying the reflectivity, center wavelength and 3dB bandwidth of grating, and by varying the channel number and pump power. The numerical results show that under the optimal parameters of grating the gain stabilization at 1550nm is ±0.044dB with high gain and large dynamic range.
