Abstract
The demand for high-quality optical sources to improve the performance of high-speed fibre-optic communication systems has inevitably led to a rapid increase in the design complexity of optical sources designed for telecommunication applications. The main objective of the study was to evaluate the possibility of designing a low complexity single-frequency fibre laser operating within the C-band fibre-optic communication frequency band. An erbium-doped fibre laser was designed in this project, because of its emission spectra which cover the C-band. The relevance of the study was associated with the proposed low complexity design and the method used to optimize the optical output power quality of the designed erbium-doped fibre laser...
