Abstract

This paper has clarified the hybrid doped optical fiber amplifiers characteristics analysis for performance improvement and loss management in optical transmission communication system capacity. We have employed different optical amplifications such as praseodymium (Pr) doped fiber amplifier, erbium (Er) doped fiber amplifier, ytterbium (Yb) doped fiber amplifier, and thulium doped fiber amplifier. Optical amplifier gain and noise are simulated versus different spectral operating wavelengths based on various doped fiber amplifiers with various modulation schemes. Alternate mark inversion (AMI), bipolar return to zero (BiRZ), and unipolar non return to zero (UNRZ) modulation schemes are employed in this work. Q factor and bit error rates are demonstrated for the overall fiber system based on Er-Yb doped amplifier with different modulation schemes against maximum transmission distance at various data transmisssion.
