A 20 dB gain 12 cores Er 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped cladding pumped amplifier in C-band with only 5.3 W of pump power has been achieved. A classical rate equation model has been applied for the amplifier d…
Distributed optical fiber sensors using Brillouin scattering have already demonstrated their ability to measure changes in strain and temperature over long distance. However, the simultaneous sensi…
In the framework of high-data-rate free-space optical low Earth orbit satellite-to-ground communication, we investigate, by means of a refined end-to-end numerical model of the link, the performanc…
