Abstract
A 16-channel optical FDM distribution/transmission experiment at around 1534 nm wavelength is demonstrated utilising an Er3+-doped fibre amplifier. 16 intensity-modulated optical signals at 622Mbit/s were amplified simultaneously at a gain of 15.2-18.5 dB. One of the amplified signals is selected using the waveguide frequency selection switch and directly detected with a receiver sensitivity of - 38dBm (Pe = 10-9).
