Zusammenfassung:In this paper, the performance of ring cavity Brillouin Erbium fiber laser (BEFL) within L-band wavelength region are discussed. Introducing Erbium doped fiber as a secondary gain medium into conventional Brillouin fiber laser configuration is the best alternative to maximize the Brillouin Stokes power (output power) and to sustain the gain flatness. Few parameters comprising length of fiber, pump power and tunable laser source power are varied to obtain the optimum output power. From the simulation process, a maximum Brillouin Stokes power of 54.75 dBm is produced as 16 dBm Brillouin pump power and 1480 nm pump laser are injected to the configuration.
