      Hi guys,
      i want to use SOA , which amplify the input signal 4 times of the input signal, and maximum output of the SOA is 1.2mW, regardless of the input power or gain.

      so what should be the value of the parameters of the SOA.

      Thank you

      Hello Raja,
      According to information about the parameters of Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers (SOA), I can recommend you to take a look at the ITU-T recommendation G.661 “Definition and test methods for the relevant generic parameters of optical amplifier devices and subsystems”. Here is the link for that: https://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-G.661-200603-S/en. For the purpose of optical power level limitation, optical power level normalizer component is used.

        Hi Ravil

        Thanks for your answer. and sorry for late replay. I have read the documents, that you referred. That is a good reference.
        But i want to design the SOA of Optisystem. Can you refer me some documents about that?

        And there any optical Power normalizer or power limiter in optisystem-7? which is work as the practical device.
