Abstract
A 24dB gain bidirectional erbium-doped fibre amplifier (EDFA) using a new n on-reciprocal optical filter is demonstrated. Using the amplifier 2.5Gbit/s x 8 channel WDM signals were transmitted over 160km long singlemode fibre. The measured penalty caused by multiple optical reflection was negligible.
