Specifically, the present invention takes 51 optical transmitters 1, 51 optical receivers 13, and 4 pump lasers 7 as an example, and the operation principle thereof is explained:
4 paths of pumping light emitted by 4 pumping lasers 7 are transmitted into a light coupler 5 through a second optical fiber 6 and enter the tail end of a tellurate glass optical fiber 4(TBZN tellurate glass optical fiber) after being coupled, 51 paths of signal light with different wavelengths emitted by a light emitter 1 are transmitted through a first optical fiber 2 to reach the input end of a wave combiner 3 and are coupled into the front end of the tellurate glass optical fiber 4 through the wave combiner, and the two signals are transmitted in the tellurate glass optical fiber 4. When the signal light and the pump light do not meet, the energy of the signal light is slowly attenuated in the first optical fiber 2 due to various losses until the signal light and the pump light meet in the tellurite glass optical fiber 4, the coupled signal light is amplified through the stimulated Raman scattering effect (the pump light with short wavelength emitted by the coupled pump light is subjected to energy transfer, and the energy of the coupled pump light is transferred to the coupled signal light with long wavelength), and the energy of the coupled pump light is reduced due to the transfer. Subsequently, the amplified coupled signal light (i.e., amplified signal light) and the coupled pump light (i.e., residual pump light) after the self energy is transferred are input to the input end of the band elimination filter 9 together through the third optical fiber 8, the band elimination filter 9 filters the residual pump light, and only the output of the amplified signal light is reserved.

Refer to the Raman gain diagram of the gain medium of Raman fiber amplifier, TBZN type tellurate glass fiber, shown in FIG. 2. Its Raman frequency shift range is [0, 1100]cm-1In this way, amplification of different degrees can be achieved when the frequency difference between the pump light and the signal light is within this range. When amplifying the signal light of C wave band, selecting [300, 800 ]]cm-1The curve of the range is exaggerated. Therefore, the utility model can only use a part of the gain spectrum of the TBZN type tellurate optical fiber as an amplification gain medium under the excitation of only four backward pumps in the structure, thereby realizing the pairAnd amplifying the C-band signal light.
Referring to fig. 3, which is a graph showing the backward pumping RFA output gain of the TBZN type tellurate glass fiber, it can be seen from fig. 3 that the average gain reaches 23.7388dB, and the gain flatness is only 0.2098 dB.
In summary, the present invention employs a backward multi-pump injection fiber to make the output gain flatness of the raman amplifier reach a very low value, and on this basis, optimization is performed to obtain a more ideal output flatness, which is significantly reduced, and a band-stop filter is employed to filter out the redundant residual pump light to reduce the influence of noise, thereby realizing low-noise signal light amplification. Meanwhile, the Raman amplifier of the embodiment has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble, so that the Raman amplifier can be used as a discrete amplifier and can be flexibly applied to each amplification position of an optical fiber communication network. Meanwhile, the spectral width of the Raman gain spectrum of the TBZN type tellurate glass optical fiber reaches 1000cm-1The Raman amplifier applied to the embodiment can effectively widen the feasible bandwidth of the amplifier, has the gain coefficient as high as 3.8 multiplied by 10 < -12 > m/W, is higher by one order of magnitude compared with the Raman gain coefficients of different fibers such as quartz fibers, common photonic crystal fibers and the like, and obviously improves the gain effect.
