Abstract

Optical amplifiers have played significant role in optical communication since been first commercially used in mid 1980s. They have been preferable compare to conventional repeater due to their simple structure, low-cost and high performance. Most important, they can amplify the light signal directly, without the need to change the signal into electrical form. In this project, the optical transmission systems using cascaded optical amplifiers have been designed and their performance based on various parameters; such as loop length, input wavelength and configuration of amplifier have been analyzed. Two types of optical amplifier which are Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier and Raman Amplifier have been used in this project. The system is simulated using Optiwave Optisystem 7.0 software and the output parameter such as gain, noise figure, output power, optical signal-to-noise ratio, quality factor and Bit-error rate have been recorded and presented in graphical form.
