“…Thus, an algorithm is required to act on the EDFA operating point when the amplifier input power varies. To do so, it is essential a prior characterization, different from the one accomplished to simulated AGC in previous the section, to obtain the amplifier static parameters inside its power mask [14,20].…”

“…8, which presents the amplifier power mask with information of noise figure (a) and gain flatness (b). It is possible to observe a distinct behavior for the noise figure (NF) and gain flatness (GF), which allows for determination of the best gain set point with respect to each parameter, for different input power conditions [20].…”

“…8(a), which shows the objective space for a -15-dBm of input power, with the color chart levels related to different gain values. It can be seen that, for a given value of input power, moving from a low to a high value of target gain, noise figure and flatness tend to improve [20]. However, below NF = 4 dB, In this way, the Euclidean distance d i between a given point and the origin can be associated with a quality function, denoted as fitness function:…”

“…For example, in [3], various WSS equalization strategies are proposed and their performance is experimentally quantified when using a cascade of ROADMs. The study in [4] accounts for typical EDFA profiles and presents three adaptive EDFA gain control strategies to evaluate OSNR, NF, bit error rate and gain flatness. These and other similar studies are conducted using a cascade of EDFAs to form a line network.…”

“…A control module has been developed to explore the impact of each of these factors. Options for the EDFA gain control strategy include fixed gain [2] and NFbased gain [4], besides a hypothetical and ideal EDFA gain case used as benchmark. Options for the WSS-induced power equalization strategy include flat output power, linear tilted output power and flat output OSNR across the wavelength channels in the C-band.…”

Software-defined networking is enabling wavelength-division multiplexed (WDM) networks to be programmable down to individual components. While taking into account typical gain and noise figure profiles of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) components, the authors consider a number of signal power control strategies and compare their performance in terms of achievable lightpath optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR). These strategies are applied network-wide to concurrently control the gain of each individual amplifier and the signal power equalization at each reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexer. Simulation and (in part) experimental results show that the lightpath OSNR is affected by three factors: the EDFA gain control strategy, power equalization strategy and wavelength assignment (WA) algorithm. A trade-off between lightpath average OSNR and OSNR variance across the WDM channels is also noted. Experimental work is conducted using a five-node meshed WDM network testbed proving both feasibility and effectiveness of a coordinated use of signal power control strategies and WA algorithms.
