Transient gain response of optical amplifiers to the addition/removal of channels is a major
problem in multi-wavelength amplified optical networks. In order to avoid error bursts in the …

Transient gain dynamics in doped-fiber amplifiers have been studied intensively in
connection with sudden channel addition or removal caused by either unintentional failures …

The authors present results of numerical analysis on transient gain response to channel
addition/removal in a counter-directionally pumped Raman fibre amplifier (RFA) with a pump …

In this article we investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, suppression of transient
effects in all-optical gain-clamped (AOGC) lumped Raman fibre amplifiers (RFA) caused by …

We have investigated, both experimentally and theoretically, the effect of channel
removal/addition on surviving channel power transients in distributed Raman fibre amplifier …

In this article, we investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, transient effects in
Raman fiber amplifiers (RFA) caused by channel addition/removal. A comprehensive large …

We study power transients in Raman fibre amplifiers (RFA). Transients are defined as the
output signal power response to abrupt change in the number of signal channels at the input …

We theoretically analyse the dynamic response of amplifier cascades involving
combinations of unclamped and gain-clamped discrete fiber Raman amplifiers (DFRAs) in …

This letter describes the dynamic characteristics of all-optically gain clamped discrete
Raman amplifier chains. Amplifier cascades are analyzed under channels add/drop …
