Linear Power Division Approximation for Stimulated Raman Scattering

Abstract

This article presents a linear power division algorithm to achieve almost constant modulated stimulated Raman scattering power. This assumes a linear variation of power in a channel with respect to another, which is a result of experimental verification. During this study, variation of signal power from 1 to 60 mW was done, and the number of channels varied from 3 to 99.

Keywords:

• dense wavelength-division multiplexing
• linear approximation
• modulated power
• number of channels
• stimulated Raman scattering
• transmitted power
