Raman amplification in fiber optical communication systems
TL;DR: In this article, Stimulated Raman Scattering in Optical Fibers Raman Pumping in Optical Fiber Communications Distributed Raman amplification along the transmission span Discrete Raman amplifiers Impairments and Limitations to Raman Amplification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unified description of ultrafast stimulated Raman scattering in optical fibers
TL;DR: In this article, Coupled nonlinear equations that describe the nonlinear process of stimulated Raman scattering in optical fibers are derived, which account in a unified manner for the Raman amplification, the Stokes generation, the induced self-frequency shift, and the interpulse stimulated-Raman-scattering-induced crossfrequency shift.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kink solitons and optical shocks in dispersive nonlinear media.
TL;DR: The generalized nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation governs wave propagation in nonlinear dispersive media by including the effects of group-velocity dispersion, self-phase-modulation, stimulated Raman scattering, and self-steepening.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous amplification and compression of picosecond optical pulses during Raman amplification in optical fibers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a technique that can lead to simultaneous amplification and compression of picosecond optical pulses by copropagating a weak signal pulse with an intense pump pulse in an optical fiber whose minimum dispersion wavelength is chosen such that it falls between the pump and the signal wavelengths.
