Abstract

Réseau optique comprenant une fibre optique à base de silice dopée à l'erbium (30), dont la section est en forme de D. Le guide d'onde achemine des signaux d'information à 1,53 µm provenant d'une source de signaux (38) et les amplifie par pompage au moyen d'une source de pompage optique fonctionnant à 0,994 µm (36). Les signaux optiques sont prélevés du guide d'onde au moyen de coupleurs évanescents (32 et 34). Le guide d'onde (30) assure une amplification suffisante pour compenser au moins la perte de prélèvement du signal d'information due aux prises optiques. Le coeur du guide d'onde optique (30) est choisi de façon à réduire sensiblement le diamètre des points constitués par les signaux à la longueur d'onde de la source de pompage (36). On assure ainsi l'extraction préférentielle du signal d'information afin de laisser la source de pompage essentiellement libre d'obstacles pour le pompage des régions du guide d'onde amplificateur (30) qui sont au-delà de la prise optique.
