Optical Amplifiers
In a fiber-optic communication system, digital or analog signals from a
transmitter are coupled into the optical fiber. As they propagate along the length
of the fiber, these signals get attenuated due to absorption, scattering, etc. and
broadened due to dispersion. After a certain length, the cumulative effect of
attenuation and dispersion causes the signals to become too weak and
indistinguishable to be detected reliably. Before this happens, the strength and
shape of the signals must be restored. This can be done by using
