Patent

CA 2328766

The invention concerns a doped fibre optical amplifier for L-band (band ranging from about 1570 to 1610 nm) comprising a doped optical fibre (10) including a doped monomode core (16) and a sheath (18, 20), and optical pumping means (12) optically coupled with the doped fibre. The invention is characterised in that said sheath comprises an inner multimode sheath (18) and an outer sheath (20), the pumping signal being injected into the inner sheath (18), and the monomode core (16) is doped so as to induce a mean energy population inversion less than 50 % in the doped fibre, and preferably ranging between 35 % and 45 %. The invention is applicable to wavelength division multiplexing optical transmission systems.

Amplificateur optique (8) à fibre dopée pour la bande L (bande de 1570 à 1610 nm environ) comportant une fibre optique dopée (10) comprenant un coeur monomode dopé (16) et une gaine (18, 20), et un moyen de pompage optique (12) couplé optiquement à la fibre dopée, caractérisé en ce que ladite gaine comprend une gaine interne multimode (18) et une gaine externe (20), le signal de pompage étant injecté dans la gaine interne (18), et en ce que le coeur monomode (16) est dopé de manière à induire un taux moyen d'inversion de population inférieur à 50 % dans la fibre dopée, et de préférence compris entre 35 % et 45 %. Application aux systèmes de transmission optique WDM.
