TY - JOUR A1 - Díaz, Silvia AU - Abad Valtierra, Silvia AU - López-Amo, Manuel T1 - Fiber-optic sensor active networking with distributed erbium-doped fiber and Raman amplification Y1 - 2008 SN - 18638899 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/11268/5403 AB - This work is meant to provide a review of different multiplexing topologies employing distributed erbium-doped fiber and Raman amplification to solve the problem of power-loss compensation in fiber-optic sensor (FOS) networks. This is a key parameter in large multiplexing networks, particularly when employing intensity-modulated sensors. These topologies are studied both theoretically and experimentally, and a comparative analysis is carried out between them. The main parameters considered in the analysis are power budget, optical signal-to-noise ratios, scalability and architecture complexity. KW - Fibras ópticas KW - Telecomunicación LA - eng ER -
