Research on Broadband Raman Fiber Amplifier based on Particle Swarm Optimization
In order to improve the amplification bandwidth of Raman Fiber Amplifier(RFA)and the transmission capacity of optical fiber communication systems
a broadband RFA with 100 nm bandwidth is designed by using four pumps with different wavelengths.Combined with the particle swarm optimization algorithm when solving the Raman coupled wave differential equation numerically
the wavelengths and powers of four pumps are optimized.The three sets of optimization results with average on-off gains of 18.690 9 dB
19.638 7 dB
21.764 1 dB respectively with corresponding gain flatness of 0.879 7 dB
0.914 4 dB
0.945 2 dB are obtained.Based on the three sets of optimized pump powers and pump wavelengths
the boundary conditions of particle swarm optimization algorithm are improved
which further improve the performance of RFA and particle swarm optimization algorithm.Finally
a broadband RFA with a gain of 22.480 4 dB and a gain flatness of 0.696 3 dB is realized.At the same time
the parameters of inertia weight and learning factors in the algorithm have been appropriately changed so as to analyze and compare how the optimization results change when different parameters are selected.The results of the analysis and comparison provide some references for the choice of algorithm parameters.
