The effect of amplification on the state of polarization over 50 km using an EDFA
This work studies the influence of an Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) on the phase variation of light in an optical fiber. To this end, the state of polarization (SOP) was measured as a function of optical power by adjusting the EDFA amplification, for two different laser output powers (2 dBm and 5 dBm). Results show that phase variation correlates with changes in optical power in both cases.
