            Abstract : 
In this paper we present the pumping methods for lasers based on double-clad fiber working in ring or linear configuration. We perform different configurations of pumping fiber couplers to pump double-clad fiber lasers. We also show the laser output signals obtained with the use of the discussed fiber laser pumping coupler
