This WDM kit, coupled with the erbium doped fiber amplifier, allows the experimental study of the behaviour of an erbium doped fiber amplifier, working in multiwavelength mode. Option: it is also possible to add a circulator and a fiber Bragg grating, in order to make an Add-Drop. A new generation of fibre optic transmission systems have appeared in the 90's, using the wavelength multiplexing/demultiplexing techniques (WDM). This technique enables bidirectional communications over a. Corning's dense wavelength division multiplexers (DWDMs) are integrated optical modules that combine, or multiplex, and separate, or demultiplex multiple optical signals of different wavelengths in a single fiber. To begin with, we assume that we have the element parameters from a known process design kit (PDK). This allows multiple channels of data to be transmitted simultaneously.
