Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a co-propagating Raman amplifying system which provides a sufficient on-off gain without causing pump signal crosstalk and signal pump signal crosstalk at unwanted level, and makes the device useful. SOLUTION: A fiber Raman amplifier is configured to use a co-propagating Raman pumping source, and this is advantageous in various system configurations. One example is a bi-directional communication system. A sufficient optical gain can be obtained with the co-propagating system by carefully configuring pumping source characteristics. These characteristics include the points such as (1) to use at least 50mW optical pump power, (2) to have a relatively large spectrum bandwidth in the pump for suppressing SBS, (3) a frequency difference among all the vertical pump modes of each pump laser is separated by at least a walk-off frequency between a pump laser frequency and a signal frequency, and all the strong vertical modes among individual pump laser are separated by at least an electric frequency bandwidth of a communication system.

Abstract: A fiber Raman amplifier is configured to use a co-propagating Raman pum p source, which may be beneficial in a variety of system configurations (for example, in bidirectional communication systems). By carefully configuring the pump sour ce characteristics, sufficient optical gain can be achieved in the co-propagati ng arrangement, the characteristics including: (1) using an optical pump power of at least 50mW, (2) having a relatively large spectral bandwidth within the pump (to suppress SBS); and (3) a frequency difference between all longitudinal pump modes of each pump laser being separated by at least the walk-off frequency between the pu mp laser frequency and the signal frequency, and all intense longitudinal modes betwe en different pump lasers being separated by at least the electrical bandwidth o f the communication system.
