Diagrams
Fig. 1: Here, we show how the optical powers at various wavelengths vary within the fiber.
Fig. 2: This shows the spectrum of forward and backward ASE with a logarithmic (dB) vertical scale.
Fig. 3: The outputs are plotted as functions of the pump power.
Fig. 4: The outputs are plotted as functions of the signal input power.
