摘要
A limiting optical amplifier is demonstrated using three cascaded stages of erbium-doped fibre amplifiers. A constant output power of +12.9 dBm was obtained for an input power ranging from -30 to 1.5 dBm. The optical noise figure of the amplifier has been measured over the > 30 dB dynamic range. Design guidelines for optical limiting amplifiers are also presented.
