Abstract

The simultaneous amplification of 16 distributed feedback (DFB) lasers over a 34-nm spectral range in an erbium-doped fiber amplifier is reported. Sixteen DFB lasers spaced at approximately 2-nm intervals and covering 34 nm in the 1.55- mu m band were modulated with a total of 100 studio-quality analog FM-TV channels and six 622-Mb/s channels.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
