Awt. Wu et Aj. Lowery, EFFICIENT MULTIWAVELENGTH DYNAMIC-MODEL FOR ERBIUM-DOPED FIBER AMPLIFIER, IEEE journal of quantum electronics, 34(8), 1998, pp. 1325-1331
An efficient full spectrum (1480-1600 nm) large-signal transient dynam
ic model of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is developed. A tec
hnique to speed up the simulation by a factor of 1000 using artificial
delay lines based on the transmission-line model (TLM) is presented.
Simulations and experimental results show the delay line method is not
detrimental to the accuracy of the model, The efficiency of this mode
l means it is ideal for simulating the dynamics of large wavelength-di
vision multiplexed (WDM) networks if included in a network simulator.
