Optical Amplification

Optical Amplification is a physical process in which an optical signal is boosted in intensity without converting it to an electrical form, achieved through stimulated emission in a gain medium such as rare-earth-doped fiber, thereby preserving the signal's wavelength, phase, and modulation format.
