1. Fiber optic parametric amplifiers in single and multi wavelength applications
Abstract : This thesis describes fiber optical parametricamplifiers (FOPAs) used in single- and multi-wavelength channel applications.The FOPA was operated as a pulse source in optical transmission systems at bit rates of 10-160 Gb/s. It was evaluated in terms of bit error rate after transmission with link lengths up to 650 km. READ MORE

2. Optical Transmission Systems Based on Phase-Sensitive Amplifiers
Abstract : The capacity and reach of today's long-haul fiber optical communication systems is limited by amplifier noise and fiber nonlinearities. Conventional, phase-insensitiveamplifiers (PIAs), have a quantum limited noise figure (NF) of 3 dB at high gain, meaning that with a shot-noise limited input signal the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)is degraded by at least 3 dB.

3. Characterization of Phase-Sensitive and Phase-Insensitive Fiber Optical Parametric Amplifiers
Abstract : The topic of this thesis is fiber optical parametric ampliers (FOPA). A unique feature of such ampliers is that they can operate in both phase-insensitive and phase-sensitive mode. The latter offers the potential of amplification without any added noise. READ MORE

4. Noise and Saturation Properties of Fiber Optical
Abstract : Fiber Optical Parametric Amplifiers (FOPAs) are based on a highly efficient Four-wave Mixing process in highly nonlinearfibers and have gained a lot of interest since it was shown that ahigh gain can be obtained. They are multi-functional devices thatare not only limited to amplifying signals, but their wide range ofapplicability also include wavelength conversion, pulse-generation,optical sampling and also regeneration at very high bit-rates.

5. Towards Practical Implementation of Phase-Sensitive Amplifier Based Transmission Systems
Abstract : All commercially available optical amplifiers are so-called phase-insensitive amplifiers (PIAs) which degrade the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) through the amplification process. This kind of amplifier has a quantum limited noise figure (NF) of 3 dB. READ MORE
