Comparison of the cascadability of conventional and gain-clamped semiconductor optical amplifier gates in multi wavelength optical networks
A detailed investigation of the cascadability of Gc-soaS AND soaS in EDM networks is presented. The analysis shows far superior cascadability of GC-SOAs at a channel bit rate of 2,5 Gbit/s in systems with up to at least 16 channels.
