Design, Development And Characterization Of S-Band Optical Amplifier

To increase the information-carrying capacity of a single optical fibre that uses wavelength division multiplexing, optical channels in other spectral bands must be made use of, namely S- and L-bands, not just in C-band. In any transmission medium, the signal will get attenuated and must be boosted....
