Precise Calibration for Optical Amplifier Noise Figure Measurement Using the RIN Subtraction Method
Published
Author(s)
Abstract
Calibration with a relative intensity noise (RIN) standard significantly improves the RIN subtraction method for measuring the noise figure of an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA). The typical standard uncertainty in our measurement is {less than or equal to} 0.15 dB.Proceedings Title
