Abstract
In this work, a new, to the best of our knowledge, full double-pass serial hybrid fiber amplifier is simulated on OptiSystem 7.0 software. A wideband flat gain spectrum covered both conventional and long communication bandwidth (${\rm{C}} + {\rm{L}}$) from 1530 to 1590 nm, which is approximately 60 nm with high average gain of 23.6 dB; acceptable noise figure of 7 dB is achieved via the L-shape configuration. The main innovative step in the proposed design is decreasing the cascading amplification effect between the combined amplifiers, by making the individual full double-pass for the input signal in each amplifier stage.
