Abstract :
An optical amplifier followed by a bistable element has been statistically analyzed before. In this manuscript, output noise analysis represents, then signal to noise ratios (SNR) are calculated either for input or output. It will be shown that noise reduction, can be achieved by a proper selection of parameters.
