Study the Performance of Various Optical Amplifiers for 80 Channels WDM System Using Attenuator

Abstract In this paper we have study the performance of different optical amplifiers (Erbium doped amplifier (EDFA), RAMAN amplifier, and semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA)) for 80 channels wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) system with the data rate at 10 Gbps data rate for the transmission distance of 280 km After getting the results of these amplifiers the performance of these has to be compared The Q-factor values achieved better in EDFA as compared to SOA and RAMAN. While the BER getting good in SOA as compared with other amplifiers but in EDFA after 200 km it goes saturated, the Power achieved at the power estimator is getting better in EDFA optical amplifier while in other amplifier it achieved negative. At the end it is also study the Power with frequency in THz and the Eye Diagram of such amplifiers results.
